The 2019 ACDCA National Specialty was fantastic for our customers and our genetics!

Stacey Palmer &  Spader N Kylie’s Vaquero Shout went Herding High In Trial with a win in the Advanced Cattle Class! Yippee is by Spader Vintage Vaquero and out of Kylies My Shout Mate.

Shortly after the Specialty, "Yippee" earned the incredible honor of finishing her Herding Champion title! Very few dogs have been able to earn this title throughout the history of the breed-it is the highest herding title available through AKC sanctioned events. What a duo!

Cynthia and Spader Operation Valkyrie were the ACDCA Calcutta Champions, and earned 2nd in Advanced Sheep to earn 3 points towards their Herding Championship! “Kyrie” is by Kuawarri Revolution and out of Spader Good Onya Lena.

Kim and Spader Mudhaus Thrill Ride “BULL” earned his Rally Excellent title with a 3rd place and won first place in Novice obedience to get his obedience CD title. Bull is by Willowpark Bush Tribute and out of Spader I Found My Thrill

 Terri Miller and Spader I Found My Thrill UD CDX PCDX BN GN RN IPOBH HIC DS won Obedience High In Trial ! This is their second time to win this prestigous event! They were 1st in Utility B, 1st in Open B, 1st in Preferred Utility, and High Combined Overall Score. Layne is by Albritts Viking Warrior and out of Spader Hava Lil Faith

Our very own young sire in the making "Spader Game Changer" won 3rd in the Puppy Sweepstakes, handled expertly by Stacey Palmer. He is by Albritts Viking Warrior and out of Willowpark Bush Tribute

To the best of our knowledge, this is the only ACD that has acheived an IPO-3 title. Congrats Stacey!
