The annual Dean Sheepdog Trials is a spectacle of dog handling excellence.

The stars of the show man-oeuvre three sheep around a course on the command of their handlers, while being judged on time and ability.

The full day event is a priority event for the dog handlers – so a quality field is assured. National, state and local champions are among the field of 40, with some travelling from inter-state. Spectators can chat to the handlers and learn the finer points of the sport.

Good old fashioned country cooking is available all day from the canteen, and a vintage machinery display is sure to delight.

Across Victoria’s Midwest, we acknowledge that we travel across the ancient landscapes of many First Peoples communities.

These lands have been nurtured and cared for over tens of thousands of years and we respect the work of Traditional Custodians for their ongoing care and protection.

We recognise the past injustices against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in this country. As our knowledge grows, we hope that we can learn from their resilience and creativity that has guided them for over 60,000 years.

As we invite people to visit and explore Victoria’s Midwest, we ask that alongside us, you also grow to respect the stories, living culture and connection to Country of the Ancestors and Elders of our First Peoples.
