By RICH GREENE DN Staff Writer While champion stock dog DSW Rex, cosigned by Merle Newton, may have got the most atten- tion at Friday's 36th Annual Stock Dog Sale it was a puppy who raised the most money. As part of an annual tradition at the Red Bluff Bull & Gelding Sale, a puppy was auc- tioned off with all of the proceedings going to Water for Life, a non- profit organization that works to protect and promote agricultural water rights and advo- cates for responsible land stewardship. The donated puppy was auction several times as the winning bidders donated the dog back to the sale to raise even more funds. On Friday $13,000 was raised through nine different donations for Water for Life. Preceding the charity auction DSW Rex was one of 16 stock dogs auctioned. Rex scored runs of 84, 87 and 84 out of 100 to be far and away the highest scoring dog worked at this year's sale. The dogs are given three runs to measure their capabilities of being a real ranch dog. They are graded in three categories. Stop, a dog's ability to go to the lead of the lead cow, and ability to show sufficient power to stop and control cattle when challenged is graded on a scale of up to 50 points. The remaining 50 points are divided between the dog's obe- dience and control.
