Visitors to flock to international sheepdog trials

|September 09, 2025
THE International Sheepdog Trials 2025, the pinnacle of this year’s trialling diary, is to be held at Brynkinalt Estate, Chirk, this week.
The 2025 event, which takes place from Thursday to Saturday, falls to the Welsh Directorate of the International Sheepdog Society.
Welsh national president Glyn Jones, local committee Chairman Glyn Owens and team were tasked with finding the venue.
The international trial is the culmination of the sheepdog trials diary, with competitors and their dogs from the four nations qualifying at their own national trials throughout the summer.
From these trials, each nation sends a team to the international trial, where competition is strong as members and their dogs compete to become International Supreme Champion.
Glyn Jones farms with his sons Elgan and Gethin in the Ceiriog Valley, and as you travel further along the River Ceiriog through Chirk, you will come to this year’s venue, Brynkinalt Estate, with its impressive Grade II*-listed Hall.
