ROBIN BROWN
Stockmanship is an essential part of me and the way I train, because of my upbringing on cattle ranches. Everything in my training is simple. Pressure and release is the key to success. I feel Like I have been a pioneer and trail blazer for the upcoming generations of female dog trainers, who I know can excel with their dogs at higher levels and raise the bar like I have done. I am very blessed and feel so fortunate do to what I have done for the past 35 years. My biggest accomplishments are 3x National Open Champion titles and Nursey and Nevada’s Best Cow dog series Champion for 4 consecutive years,
Art of The Cowgirl Master Cow Dog Trainer, and 2024 World Stock Dog Reserve Champion with Burndale Ben in Calgary, Alberta Canada. It is also the hundreds of dogs I have placed in the ranchers’ hands across the U.S Canada and overseas. I have memories I will never forget, friends I would have never met, and dogs that have helped make me a better trainer. I thank The Lord every day and have gratitude that is ever present.
EMMA GRAY
Emma Lives with her husband Ewan and son Len on a 680 acre farm on the Scottish island of Bute. They farm 750 cross bred ewes and 40 head of cattle.
She has trained sheepdogs since she was 17 and no one in her family trained dogs so she had to learn the hard way through trial and error.
She was the first and only woman to win the Northumberland league. Emma won the English nursery final twice, has been an English team member twice, and a Scottish team member once. She was a world trial semi finalist for England in Holland where they took the team gold.
She runs an online training school showcasing how to train dogs for sheep work, demonstrating warts and all.
This will be her first trip across the water.
