Editorial Reviews

From the Wonderful World of Disney, for the first time on DVD. Journey to California's picturesque Santa Inez Valley as a wild Brahma bull threatens the area's prize cattle herds. The rancher's best hopes for corraling the 1800-pound horned hooligan are three Australian "cow cutter" shaepherd dogs- Stub, Queen, and Shorty. Stub has more than just good cow sense. He keeps a few tricks "up his sleeve" for rodeos, roundups, and a daring river rescue. Hold onto your cowboy hat and try to stay in the saddle as you experience a generous slice of western adventure. 49 minutes. New to DVD.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing early Australian Shepherds, April 12, 2008

This review is from: Stub: The Best Cowdog in the West (DVD)

This was a sweet old early TV show--and funny in parts because of the endearing Slim Pickens. I loved seeing these early Australian Shepherds. Two of my Aussies go back to Sisler's Shorty, who appears in the film. Aussie lovers everywhere need a copy of this to appreciate where the breed came from and how they do the job they were bred for.

5.0 out of 5 stars Priceless if you care about history of the Aussie, June 1, 2009

This review is from: Stub: The Best Cowdog in the West (DVD)

At this writing (2009) the Australian Shepherd has only has a registry for a little over 60 years. The dogs in this cute little Disney story were the foundation of this breed, really were Jay's dogs, it really was his rodeo act and his ranch in Idaho. There is nothing on earth like this showing this part of this breed of dog's heritage. We have faded photographs and yellowed writings, but nothing close to this. A treasure.

5.0 out of 5 stars A MUST HAVE for any Australian Shepherd lover!, December 30, 2008

This video is a MUST HAVE for any Australian Shepherd (Aussie) lover!

The movie itself is cute and the scenery and wide open spaces are amazing!

This video showcases some of the originally registered greats of the breed and their owner, Jay Sisler. It is a wonderful visual history of the beginnings of the Australian Shepherd.
