Kier Scott of Herding East Stock Dogs outside of Airdrie, Alberta has paved himself a path in the stock dog industry.

Growing up around working dogs he didn’t get the itch until he found a dog named Sweep from his father.

It didn’t take them long and they were winning trails and Kier was full steam ahead.

Kier and his wife Samantha now host weekly dog nights, clinics, dog sales and a winter series dog trial at Thorlakson arena.

You can follow Herding East on Facebook or look at their website where you’ll see the, Diamond T Cowhorses sponsored, weekly blogs on stockdog training and philosophies.

We truly appreciate Kier and Samantha, they have been huge supporters of our podcast and this episode was a true pleasure to produce.

F10 Ultra Saddle pads

Like most people, I've been on the hunt for a high quality saddle pad that is going to fit all types of horses as well as look good and perform under all conditions.

When I was fortunate enough to win cowboy of the day award at a ranch rodeo this fall I was awarded an F10 ultra pad.

I was ecstatic because I was in desperate need of a new pad but it wasn't until after I talked to Dillon at F10 Ultra that I realized what I got my hands on.

They use nothing but the best, sourcing their wool from %100 merino sheep here in Alberta.

F10 rated wool has the highest compression rating and tensile strength rating on the market. This makes it an easy choice for you and your equine partner. I have been on a long journey to find a pad of this quality and happy to say I stand behind F10 Ultra fine saddle pads.
