Snow Weekend!

Well, the dog show this weekend was cancelled due to the impending snowpocolypse. (It was a good thing too, as we got like 8" of snow that switched to sleet after dark, creating 3" of ice on top of the snow... dubbed snowcrete). We spent the rare weekend at home playing in the snow (until it turned to ice), and cleaning and clearing out a new canine conditioning room!...

Herding at Isle of Calais

My friend Anita has me out to Terri's farm in Smithfield, VA so I could learn more about how to work ducks on a much more refined level. Fiddle: We worked on keeping sustained interest and making sure she stopped when I said stop. She struggled in driving the sheep, and wanted to be very far off the sheep to drive them up the fence....

Larry Painter Clinic in Berryville, VA

Well, for the first time ever, I wasn't actually attending the clinic as a participant, but as a worker. It was my job to get stock set, order the food, bring in the coffee in the morning, and create the run order and logistics. HOWEVER, we were allowed to do a bit of work and training, both in moving stock AND at the end of the day....

Blue Ridge January Herding Trial

The first week of the new year got started off with a bang! Fiddle: Finished her Started B Course Duck Title with a High in Trial (92), and tying for High in Trial (92, and 89), with an advanced level dog, which breaks the tie and wound up with Reserve High in Trial yesterday, and today. She also grabbed two legs toward her Advanced Duck title....

Herding in Berryville

On the way back from the Christmas Holiday, we decided to stop in to Berryville and work the stock before the trial the first weekend of the year! Mazikeen and Chunky worked gathering the cattle, Rory worked on some basic driving skills, and a bit of fetching, and Tommy had his first exposure to cattle, and worked holding the pocket on a long line. Sue was working sheep for his PT, and Mazikeen and Fiddle were busy working ducks.

Herding at Claires

Whenever I get to North Carolina, I make it a point to work turkey with my friend Claire! Especially in large flocks. If the dogs push too hard, the flock will split, and if they don't push hard enough, they don't go! They really need to work rate, sense of group, and holding their lines!

Star of Bethlehem Cluster – Allentown, PA

This cluster was... well... chaos! However, Miss Chunky (Kuper x Fiddle) turned it out, finishing her Companion Dog title Wednesday, with a Bonus Beginner Novice leg from today and a second place finish, and then finishing her Rally Excellent title with two handler impaired qualifying runs! (Apparently, when I get tired, I don't know my lefts from my right?) She is now…...
