Cobber is once again calling on Australia’s toughest, stock-chasing, hard-running working dogs to battle it out for the title of the hardest working dog, with nominations now open for the milestone tenth edition of the Cobber Challenge.
The annual competition showcases the best working dogs in the country, paying tribute to the four-legged legends behind Australia’s billion-dollar agriculture industry.
From wrangling steers to guarding flocks and even dominating trial circuits, Cobber is encouraging farmers to shine a light on their most trusted companions. In a first for the competition, 2025 nominations can now be entered via video submissions as part of the 10-year anniversary celebrations.
Cobber’s Marketing Manager Kellie Savage said she hopes this year’s milestone event will be the biggest and best yet.
“Each year we’ve had a highly competitive field and we’re anticipating the same for our tenth year,” she said.
“We’re calling on Australia’s hardest working dogs to enter the field to make the 2025 Cobber Challenge our best yet.”Each selected dog will be fitted with a GPS tracker to log distance, speed, and duration over a three-week period. At the end, one top dog will take home bragging rights, $3000 cash, a year’s supply of Cobber Working Dog feed and the prestigious trophy. Runners-up will also receive prizes.

“For any farmer who is considering entering their working dog in this year’s competition, I can’t speak highly enough about the fantastic experience we’ve had, and the great recognition Ripper and Turbo have received,” he said.
Nominations are open until 22 June.
