From Border-collie bulletin:
Out of the dry dusty conditions of the Australian outback, we introduce third generation stockman and working dog trainer, Mick Hudson. In three sheep trials, Mick is currently one of the men to beat in Australia:
- Twice NSW Sheep Dog Workers Inc. Handler & Dog of the year
- Commonwealth Open Sheepdog Trial Champion Supreme Australian Champion National Open Sheepdog Champion
- Commonwealth Trans Tasman Champion
- Winner of the Ted Gaby Interstate Challenge (Mick Hudson & Bill Davidson)
Mick's training session in this program demonstrates the extremes of heat, dust and burrs which his dogs experience on a daily basis. The handling of massive flocks in this harsh environment is a challenge for any working dog. Without doubt, Mick’s Border Collies are some of the hardiest anywhere in the world.
