Bonibraes is heavily involved with promoting herding for beardies in New South Wales, holding weekly training sessions, bringing overseas instructors and becoming instructors and judges ourselves. The Australian herding system closely follows the American Kennel Association scheme. Bonibraes currently has two beardies working at Intermediate trial levels, another three at Started and four or five working their way through the Test levels. |
