The Kelpie Breed Started Here at Forbes District
The first Forbes sheepdog trials sparked the Kelpie breed. Breeding at stations near Youlgone, and at Forbes, produced the famed black and tan lines. The 2nd Kelpie pup won the first Commonwealth sheep dog trials at Forbes, drawing breeding interest and giving rise to the name Kelpie. Barb, a Barb dog, sparked naming of Barb’s pups and later Barbs.
