Herding Fun Day
We had 9 in the instinct testing right off in the morning. Even one 4.5 month old puppy who was hooked! We also had a bouv, and a briard puppy. Then the rain hit, so we took a break! We got a little wet running inside. Not quite the usual look for Bond, the Grand Ch show dog! But yes, he gets to be a "real dog"  Click through for fullsize image:   Spectating: Click through for fullsize image:   Bond and his water: Click through for fullsize image:   Some short video clips of Bond herding. Broken into 3, 30--40 second segments - beginning, middle and end clips. We were practicing for A Course sheep.

He looks great! To my (admittedly inexperienced) eye, he looks like he has very good control.  I would SO love to try herding with Benson, but the nearest place to train is something like 150 miles away.  |

I would SO love to try herding with Benson, but the nearest place to train is something like 150 miles away. He does have good control; (very hard earned on my part!) and now we are looking for moderation - in speed, bounciness, etc. He's working so much harder than he needs to....and he's doing it on purpose because he LOVES it.  This day was a drive - over 2 hours of highway driving. But thankfully, our local practice is only about 30 minutes away. And that is really rare to find.   |
