Earl is the definition of resilience. Despite being blind in one eye, he has finely tuned instincts for herding livestock and runs for miles and miles every day.

His natural ability shone through from the start, and Earl has been by Alex's side on the farm since he was a pup. Such is Earl's grueling work ethic that he even gets behind and barks at farm workers to make them move faster!
Should they win this year's Cobber Challenge, Alex and Earl will kick back on the farm and enjoy a cold beer and a tasty bone together!
Earl is one-of-a-kind. He's mentally strong and works with intensity and agility. I can't wait to see how many kilometers he runs in the yard compared with out in the field. He's non-stop and loves every minute, so I think we are in for a chance to take home the win.
