New livestock overseer for Rocklyn

Jake Nowlan has taken over as the new livestock overseer for Rocklyn Merino Stud. Jake, a ‘local’ from Bimbi, joined the Rocklyn team in January 2015 and brings with him a range of useful skills and experience as well as his incredibly talented working dogs. Jake has previously undertaken the role of livestock overseer for large sheep and cattle properties, ‘Big Badja’ and ‘Bobingah’, on the Monaro. He also shares Ralph’s passion for sport and, like his predecessor, is interested in dog trialling with one of his working dogs, ‘Democa Louie’, winning the Ultimate Stock Dog challenge at Taralga in May this year.
