Supreme Australian Sheepdog Championships

Saturday 23rd August 2025


More than 200 working sheep dogs and their handlers will flock to Northam in August to compete for the top honour at one of Australia’s largest sheep dog trials.

The top four competitors at the 2025 Dogpro Supreme Australian Sheep Dog Championship will be chosen to compete against New Zealand at October’s Wayleggo Cup in Ashburton in New Zealand’s South Island.

It has been nine years since the last competition was held in WA, when Malcolm Taylor and Somerville Nell took out the top prize.

Bill Davidson from Tamworth, New South Wales, was crowned open champion at last year’s competition with Grassvalley Flake.

The trials will take place at Northam Recreation Centre from August 23 to August 31 starting 9 am daily.

About 220 working sheep dogs and their handlers are expected to take part in the free nine-day event.
