Working Aussies Homestead

About Jordyn and Josh Kelly

Herding demonstrations with Jordyn provide insights into introducing livestock calmly and beginner-friendly exercises to kick-start your herding journey. With a strong emphasis on animal husbandry, Jordyn uses her dogs to demonstrate their usefulness on a number of levels to showcase why a herding dog is the perfect choice for your homestead or farm.

Jordyn’s aim is to inspire anyone to begin with whatever resources they have, ensuring a serene and enjoyable learning process. Additionally, she offers recommendations for advancing training and directs to further resources once you have taken the initial steps into the world of herding. Jordyn and her husband have been raising working Australian Shepherds for six years and have a small program where they focus heavily on socializing and raising puppies that will be successful in any home environment. The demonstration includes dogs of various ages to show the training process and how it differs at each stage from puppyhood to fully trained adult.
