OHUTU ACE     (IMPORTED sire)

​Clear by Parentage

Bred from Aled Owen's world champions Roy and Bob

Ace has just arrived and has instantly won our hearts. When we decided to add an imported sire we went back to Jinni Gailey (who bred Faith) as we were more than happy with her kennels. We have seen quite a few UK type dogs now and knew what we did and didn't want. Ace is a beautiful big bold dog with a personality to match. Jinni has done the ground work and now we will put the Kaden stamp on him. You can't help loving this dog, from his strong mind, good distance, uncanny stock sense and wonderful footwork. He has it all and with georgous looks he makes an impressive package! Ace will become a major part of our breeding program and mustering team.

Update..Ace has continued to impress, he has such a strong mind and never looks like quitting. His ability to learn is impressive and his heart is big. Ace is now part of the mustering team and has taken part in both sheep and cattle work. Ace is a strong dog on cattle. He has been tested in various conditions with many different types of cattle. His cast is beautifully wide and his hold strong. His teamwork is good, there is not many boxes this dog hasn't ticked when it comes to paddock work.

Keeper (IMP UK sire)
registered ISDS  00/333988 and ANKC number to follow, AWBCR A0822
 ​CEA Carrier

Picture
Keeper was born 15/06/2014 and was raised in Germany, with Lark, both were imported into Australia in April 2015.
Kaden's went into partnership with Allison Britton from Dunworkn Border Collies to bring in these much needed new genetics into Australia.
He was bred by Elaine Hill. Keeper has full working dog lines behind him with both sires working sheep and cattle.
He is a beautiful leggy dog, rough coated and nicely marked. Keeper has a sound mind and is keen to learn.

Since arriving, Keeper's training has progressed quickly and is now involved in the paddock mustering of both sheep and cattle.
He has fantastic cover and showing some nice strength. Keeper is a dog that is trying to please and understand all you are showing him. He is rating his stock better every time he goes out and will bite only when needed. he can take a hit and is right to carry on. I am liking his footwork and the way he powers off his hinds. He seems to cast with ease as it is something we have only briefly touched on. Looking forward to seeing his progress and his progeny.

gradhar omaki  (SIRE)

Omaki, like his sister Moana was purchased because they are out of Ohutu Swift. Ohutu Ace's litter sister. I love this line and both these dogs have not disappointed me. Omaki is a fun loving full of life boy. He can be excitable at times but when it comes to stock he is all work. Omaki is calm when he works, has great feel, good cover and very trainable. He listens and tries. Omaki will be used in the mustering team at the end of the year and also as a sire. I am keen to trial Omaki next year if this drought ever breaks.

Bauers Jacko (sire)

Bauer's Jacko
Jack has an excellent pedigree behind him. He works cattle and sheep with equal ability, yet he definitely prefers cattle. Jack is a strong, bold dog who loves to work and has plenty of presence around the stock; they respect him. Jack has a big cast that kicks out wide whenever he's on the chase. He is our main breeding dog and the one who never gets left behind when cattle work is on. Jack loves to please and will give you his all. He has a beautiful temperament around people that has won him many admirers. Jack is long-coated which surprisingly has been no problem in this harsh climate. 



Jack is now fully retired. He has worked hard and deserves this time

Kaden's Bonnie Lass
A0430  Q4468

Picture

Bonnie is a gem. Right from the start, this little lass had her father's presence on stock. She has a natural cast and breaks out beautifully when needed. Bonnie has plenty of force, but works with her head. She has wonderful feel for her stock which helped her achieve a good run at her first trial. She's fiercely loyal and with good bone and beautiful markings, it's no wonder she was chosen as a keeper. Bonnie is working beside her father on cattle, and I have no doubt he is pleased with his progeny. Bonnie Lass has all the attributes we look for in a working dog. 

Update.. Bonnie, along side Jack have become the main part of our mustering team. She handles her paddock work like she handles everything, calm. controlled and giving it her all. Bonnie has got the ability to work both cattle and sheep. She has one of the best casts I have seen, often searching far to pick up stock.  Bonnie is extremely easy to train. Bonnie Lass has won and placed at a few trials and I look forward to her doing more. This little Lass is so reliable and talented that she has earnt her place at Kaden's for life. 

Bonnie Lass has now retired

Kaden's Karma
A0524, Q4755
​CEA Clear

Picture
Kaden's Karma is by Ohutu Ace out of Kaden's Bonnie Lass. This was a much anticipated litter and being Ace's first a lot rode on what he produced. Karma has so far reached all my expectations and her litter siblings have all started well according to the feed back. Karma is full of life with the best of her father and mother in her. She loves to play ball, tease the other pups and stand over who ever she can. She is beautifully put together with strong bones and gorgeous looks. Karma has been shown sheep a couple of times now and she has shown me a high work ethic, strong mind and style already. She can be naughty but it is only early days and she is very much a pup. Look for updates as this little lass will be special!

Update.. I said this little lass will be special and she is proving me right. Karma is now working sheep and along with the other young ones is called on to do her share of the work.  She has a fair bit of eye and a capable ability to read her stock. Her mind is good, her footwork beautiful and her force showing already. Karma has style and looks and the makings of a wonderful cast. This girl  is now my mustering dog and has completed many musters with great success. She has her faults but her abilities far out weighs them. 


2015 Karma made the novice final with a score of 95 at the QLD Championships, placed in both the novice and improver at Longreach
​2016 Out Injured for most of the trials.

Kaden's Dark Angel
A0475 Q4563

Picture
Here she is, Bonnie Lass's girl. Born the on 26th July 2011, Angel was picked from a litter of 6. After a few looks at the sheep she finally decided it was time and when a young dorper stomped one too many times she took up the challenge. It is very early days but there is a great feeling of excitement and relief when they begin! I will keep you updated on her progress.

Update.. Angel's training is complete. She has a beautiful ability to read her stock and move them without much fuss. Angel is a calm bitch with lovely footwork like her mother. She has nice distance and archs beautifully around her sheep. Angel has plenty of eye and natural herding ability. She has a nice cast that is improving with every run and strong walk up. Angel is able to handle many different situations and mob sizes.  Angel has now joined the mustering team and has proven her worth in the paddock. She handles cattle and sheep well and is always in the right spot. Her force has been tested and she didn't disappoint. Angel is my best in the trial ring with many places and wins already. She is just a very consistent worker.  


2014 Angel achieved good results at the trials, Woodford short course Open Champion, Tara 3rd in the Novice, Barcaldine 3th in the Improver and finally Longreach final spots in both Novice and Improver. 

2015 Finals in the Novice at Tara, Open Trans Tasman at Barcaldine, jointly won the Improver Cunnamulla. 
2016 Finals in the Novice at Toowoomba, Final Open Trans Tasman Balcaldine, Open and Improver winner Longreach,

Gadhar Moana 
ISDS AU352033  ANKC 4100175421

Picture
Gradhar Moana is a beautiful girl, full of style and footwork. This lady reads and feels her stock like no other. She is a sensitive sole and incredibly loyal. Moana loves her work and changes the minute she sights sheep. An absolute pleasure to train which means progress has been swift. Her mother is Ohutu Swift, full litter sister to my Ohutu Ace which was a big reason I added her to the team. He dad is Etherial Lock who has so many good UK dogs behind him. This girl will shine.
