Welcome to the Jerilderie working Dog Auction Website

NEXT Auction – February 26, 2012 at the Jerilderie Racecourse.

A new benchmark for Jerilderie Working Dogs.
On Sunday 27th of February the township of Jerilderie NSW was a buzz of activity as interested bidders came from far and wide to watch some of the Riverina’s finest working dogs goes through their paces at the 6th Annual working Dog Auction.

The event continues to gain in popularity and the results of last year’s Auction are but a distant memory as 2011 set a new benchmark for the future. Intentions were very clear from the beginning with a record 78 bidders ranging from Vic, NSW and W.A registering before the Auction even started.
This year the event had some significant milestones; all of which resulted in a record Gross Sales of $75,605.00 up an impressive 40% on the previous year.

With a clearance rate of more than 93%, and an average sale price of $2,100 most would think that the good news stories would finish there; but the highlight of the day was the winner of the memorial Mal Murdoch trophy for the highest priced dog. Mr Ian Stringer (pictured) surpassed his 2010 efforts when his dog Lou sold for an amazing $7,900 after some very competitive bidding. Interest on the dog was clear from the beginning with on lookers sitting on the edge of their seats once the bidding surpassed the previous record…an amazing outcome which will be tough to beat.
Overall the Auction was a great success and the committee should be well pleased with the turn out and the support that they received from volunteers and local businesses. 

We look forward to seeing you at the auction in 2012. - Andrew Rutherford Ph 0458 662 871
