10. And the winner of 2013/2014 Australian Open Dog of the Year is.....BEN GOULD AND RIVERSIDE JAKE !!!!!

Congratulations to Ben Gould and his dog Riverside Jake on winning the Australian Open Working Stock Dog of the Year award for 2013/2014.

Ben and Tenielle own Riverside Working dogs, Casino NSW and should be extremely proud of their achievements, as we also are.

Congratulations to all who have traveled far and wide to support many trials and have also made it into the top 12, an amazing achievement also. I might be a little biased, but for Robert and Paul to have 4 and 3 dogs each in the top 10 shows also the solid breeding that is going into our trial dogs also. 

With this year already underway for 2014/2015, Ben has already taken a win with Jake at Rappville this weekend just gone, so the competition has begun...good luck to all for the coming year.

I will not post now until mid to late Sept, so happy trialling :-)
