Stock Dog Kennels story

Moving to the Victorian High Country in 2020 to manage the historic Hinnomunjie station, Stew brought his dogs Joey, Harry, Eddie and Rosie with him. In Omeo he met Sharna, a local lass who had three bloodhounds of her own. Stew purchased Carrascott Tip, a going working dog from the Wagga Dog Auction in 2020 and at that point the pack may have seemed big enough! As all farmers know though, you always need just one more dog and it wasn’t long before the family business planning got underway and soon the farm was home to kids, dogs, chickens, cats, sheep, cows and puppies… so many puppies!
With working dogs to train, a farm to manage and their children Lucas and Grace growing up quickly, it was important that the ever expanding four legged farm workforce had somewhere comfortable and safe to come home to at night. There was only so much room on the couch so Stew started spending time in the shed (often with the kids in tow) building raised dog kennels.

With each kennel built a little tweak in design or improvement in the process meant that soon a necessary hobby was becoming a professional manufacturing operation and reputation of the quality spread. Stew’s mates started calling and ordering their own custom designs and in doing so the foundations for Stock Dog Kennels were laid.

In late 2024 we met the team at AgBoss in Albury, an amazing family owned business supplying a range of diverse, Australian made products to the ag industry and beyond. Combining AgBoss’ 40+ years of manufacturing knowledge, engineering experience, and brilliant minds, we worked as a team to design the new raised flat pack kennel we are now able to offer throughout Australia. 

Jump to today, Stock Dog Kennels is based at 6873 Great Alpine Rd, Swifts Creek in our purpose built facility where our team builds custom made raised dog kennels and flatpack components. 

Our partnership with AgBoss and production of the new Australian First, modular raised flat pack dog kennel sees our flatpack raised kennels sold nationally and able to expand to suit as many kelpies, collies, beagles or bloodhounds as your hearts desire.
