Born on June 12, 2016, Fiddle was my very first non-rescue ACD. Purchased in August 2016 from Roberts Longhorns, in Priddy TX, she is out of Spader Kewl Twisten Dottie RL and Kuawarri Jim.

Pedigree Here

She was one of the easiest puppies that I have ever raised, shows quite a bit of drive, and good biddability and forgiveness toward a fairly green handler. She has worked sheep, goats, cows, geese, turkey, and ducks with multiple different handlers in many different states. In 2024, she finished the year as the Dam of most obedience titles AND rally titles, and got the invitation to participate in the 2024 Top 20. She also participated in the 2025 Nationals at Purina Farm, and won 3rd place in Versatility! She also has taken several High and Reserve High in Trials in herding, and won the High Combined Other Breed at the ASCA trial in Maine! She is now retired from cattle, and still works on sheep and ducks while we work toward our bigger goals. We are also working on upper level obedience training!

She has produced 4 litters for me, and has made her way on the Australian Cattle Dog Club of America Register of Merit, having a started herding title, a championship, and an obedience Companion Dog, and producing children that have a started herding title (Mazikeen, Chunky), a championship (Twist, Mazikeen, Chunky, Rory, Sue). and an obedience Companion Dog (Twist, Mazikeen, Zuko).
