CASTERTON’S annual Premier Working Dog Auction will go ahead in June, with Elders livestock agent, Neil ‘Radar’ Cooper signed on as the convenor for the 2023 event.

Earlier this month, Casterton News announced the perilous position of the auction, with the Casterton Kelpie Association yet to appoint a convenor for this year’s event – a ‘must-have’ director for the auction to take place.
