Quick? Me thinks they been around for a spell now.
What constitutes a pure though? Fuck me guys are still working on the breed.
Look forward to reading the breed standard!!!! I did read the criteria, three named generations (I think?)..Doug's Rock out of Tim's Star by Bob's Jak...that will be useful...:D
Get in behind ya mongrels. Ha ha ha ha
What a damn shame
I see the NZ Sheep dog trial association not in favour of them being shown , but they will consult first, why don't they have some respect for the breed and back off
NZKC - Breed Standard - NZ Huntaway - Working

What are you all talking about? @Pointer explain this gobble-de-gook
It means our very own working bred the huntaway, bred solely for work for the last century, can now be registered with our countries registry as a purebred. While they say they can't be shown and are not to be selected on its type, only on its work, it is only a matter of time before another country accepts them as registry, then we will see the overweight middle aged females and sequin-suited wearing homosexual men of the show ring prancing around with the pride of NZ working dogs.
It has been proven that the quickest way to degrade a working dogs working ability is to breed it for anything other than work, I sincerely believe NZKC registry will be the eventual split of Huntaway breeding in NZ. I am saddened to hear it has finally happened.
The internet is an interesting tool though, I understand what is said here on a public forum stays public forever. Consider it an archive if you will.
On that note, here is a photo of 'Boyntons Ben', the only dog to win 7 New Zealand titles from memory. While I would wager he is found in a large percentage of huntaways pedigrees today, he never produced anything in his league as a sire.

While I am on the subject of East Coast huntaways, Here is Jackie Warus' Plug, a dog that would head and hunt. Known for throwing the Brindles that are prevalent in the east coast and Wairarapa strains, He is behind many of the top trials dogs of today.

Has anyone got a picture of Sorensons Fake?
not really an issue as it seems they have left control up to the breed club.
Who is the breed club
Already may have
History
there's a shit load in aussie and a good number in the uk as well
would be nice to have the beardie and Smithfield recorded too.
as far as I know the sheepdog trial ass pushed for it.
Recorded pedigrees but never shown ?
it's me...... say no to show.
from memory there was a few registered with the united kennel club years ago....... the same registry that accepted the Lockley boar hound lol
Its not the first time the sheepdog registry has nearly fallen over, and had to be picked up by a dedicated individual. I only asked as this may have been the easier alternative for them?
Quoting Pointer "and sequin-suited wearing homosexual men of the show ring prancing around". Ha ha ha ha I went to a dog show with my missus a couple of years back and that description fits exactly with most of the dudes that were there showing their powder puff dogs (Pomeranians and Pekingese).
think of the export dollars.
My father always ran the Smithfield...great all rounders, great hunters (he would take them after rabbits, deer and possums)...have googled them (NZ) a few times...but am yet to see any fotos that depict the Smithfield I knew as a child.
I have a huntaway xlab? breeding-"by roamin catholic xopportunity".
Was havin a beer with one gerry brownleein the mancave at daughters 21st (hed arrived with a carton of steinies so it'd be rude not too)who actually reckoned JJ looked like some bastards he worked with.couldnt imagine a fat politician could you ?
I reckon seein ive got govt approval-well i think so -im gonna put the old fella up to NZKC as the founder of the breed!hed never be a source of allergies-hes a no nuts:thumbsup: job!!
