WELCOME TO WINGDARI AUSTRALIAN KELPIES
"The happiest people do not have the best of everything.
They just make the best of everything.
Love generously.
Care deeply.
Speak kindly.
Leave the rest to God."
"KEEP SMILING AND KEEP THE LOVE IN YOUR HEART"
I hope that you will enjoy your journey through my web site.
We are very proud of the results that the dogs have achieved. From limited showing, the dogs have won some great awards. We have also have Wingdari Kelpies out with their owners doing agility and obedience.
My Kelpies do not go out to the show ring every weekend as they spend their time out on the property just being dogs.
The Australian Kelpie is the most true and honest dog - "what you see is what you get", the icon of the outback, the Aussie legend and the one and only Australian sheepdog.
Both here and overseas the Australian Kelpie is in high demand for working, agility, obedience, herding, confirmation ring, tracking but most of all a family pet, a true and devoted mate and best friend.
If you would like any further information or help regarding the Australian Kelpie please do not hesitate to contact me either by telephone or my email and I will only be too pleased to help you. Perhaps email first with all your details and then I can contact you.
It would be very much appreciated that any of the information or photographs on this web site are not copied or reproduced in any way unless you have permission to do so.
Thank you.

VALE
A short time ago I lost my beautiful boy "Sonny" - Aust. Ch. Mountainmist Sunaru. "Sonny" was on his way to his fourteenth birthday. I miss his smiling face and wagging tail. Always happy and a very easy going dog. "Sonny" is buried under his tree on the new property overlooking the valley where he loved to run free. A week later my beautiful old black girl "Bess", who had been battling cancer and age, also passed away. "Sonny" and "Bess" are buried side by side. To lose two dogs within such a sort time was devastating.
REST IN PEACE MY TWO OLD FRIENDS - over the Rainbow to run with your mates.
'BESS'
WINGDARI HAS JUST RECENTLY MOVED TO A NEW PROPERTY NEAR THE SOUTHERN HIGHLANDS OF NEW SOUTH WALES.

Jilly and Spirit's first time in the snow!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY - SWEET SIXTEEN OUR BEAUTIFUL NIKKI!!!!

"NIKKI" CELEBRATED HER 16TH BIRTHDAY
8 JUNE 2011
Mother of Grand and Australian Champions.
"Nikki" still runs around like a two year old.
Hope to have you with us for many more years "Nikki".

Wingdari dogs won other placings in the various sections for DOL.
Here at Wingdari I am very proud my dogs. Many of the dogs do not go out every weekend but have achieved some great awards including winning Best of Breed at Sydney Royal 2010. We show for enjoyment and love the dogs for who they are.
I would sincerely like to thank Robyn and Craig Foster, Arcticplace Kennels - Rosemarie Forbes, Firebear Kennels - Debbie and Steve Albert, Goodwill Kennels - - Sharon Hannigan, Neecabee Kennels, Courtney and Patrice Smith, Tullaview Kennels - Jenny Bayliss, Libertybrook Kennels - Jacqi Koppman with her agility dogs Gemma and Woody - for all your support and assistance with the dogs during the year.

RUNNER UP BEST EXHIBIT IN THE HERDING GROUP
This is the second time that "Vilkuu" has won this award at the International Show in Lahti and the third time being placed in a Herding Group in Finland. Apparently in Finland it is very rare that an Australian Kelpie is placed so high in a Herding Group.
"Vilkuu's" daughter and grand daughter
Iita and Iris won - Iita was Best Bitch 3 and Iris was Best Junior 1
A quote from Heli's email from Finland - "Judge was Robert Lott from Australia and he praised Vilkku a lot. After the ring he came to ask where the dog was from and after he heard that Vilkku was breeded by you, he praised your breeding work and said that your dogs are great kelpies. In the group ring we got a bit excited because of Vilkku`s success and started to cheer, and after that also other judges came to praise Vilkku."
