Mission Statement :  The mission statement of the Livestock Producers and Working Stockdog Alliance(LPWSA) is two fold.  The LPWSA will promote stockdogs as working partners to farmers and ranchers through Exposure, Education, Training and Support.  We will provide Farmers and Ranchers with the support they may need in using working dogs. This will enable them to successfully use the dog as part of a team helping them manage their livestock operations while increasing their efficiency and profitability.

The goals of the Livestock Producers and Working Stockdog Alliance are to expose and educate livestock producers to the abilities of stockdogs and the benefits they can bring to each operation and support them in this effort.  We will promote and foster a
codependent / team working relationship between the handler and the dog.  We will provide educational opportunities in the form of demonstrations, clinics, one on one training, mentoring opportunities and internet discussion groups.  We will provide contact information for qualified trainers and working dogs that are for sale.  We are committed to promoting the use of stockdogs in everyday farm/ranch life thus helping to ensure useful well bred dogs will continue the working tradition.
