Tehama
County
Stock
Dogs
Set to
Compete
By Julie Zeeb
Every January, rain or shine, Tehama County
residents and guests alike gather to watch
as dog after dog enters the arena at the
annual Red Bluff Bull & Gelding Sale stock
dog trials to try to prove they are the dog of
choice to buyers across the nation watching
near and far.
Only 20 dogs are selected each year to
compete in the trials, during which they
are given three runs to show what they're
capable of as a ranch dog.
Announcers at the event tell the audience
each year that the competition scores the
dogs equally in three categories: strength,
control and obedience.
Strength is based off of showing the power
to stop or turn cattle when challenged
while obedience is about how well the dog
obeys commands while helping the handler
accomplish something.
