Muster Dogs

Six adorable puppies - three Collies and three Kelpies - embark on a journey to meet their new owners and compete for the title, Champion Muster Dog. Over twelve months, they navigate challenges and milestones as experts evaluate breed differences, training techniques and suitability.

As the puppies settle into their new homes and the five-month assessment approaches, the six handlers find themselves struggling to navigate personal challenges and training hurdles as they strive to train the Champion Muster Dog.

In a high-stakes showdown between Team Collie and Team Kelpie, our six participants and their pup's step through the five-month assessment tasks. They each grapple with training challenges and personal bonds, as surprises unfold.

At the eight-month mark, handlers and their pups must transition from playful puppies to skilled working dogs under increasing pressure. With mixed results in the assessment, the competition between Team Collie and Team Kelpie intensifies as the final challenge approaches.

Mentors Mick Hudson and Neil McDonald evaluate Team Collie and Team Kelpie during their ten-month assessments, providing crucial guidance and training to enhance their performance. With just two months remaining, the competition intensifies as everyone strives to perfect their skills for the final assessment.

With the twelve-month experiment now complete, the Australian Border Collie and Kelpie siblings reunite for the first time to face their final challenge. It's neck and neck but one dog shines brighter than the pack and is crowned Champion Muster Dog.
