Well, I got my entries in late, and by the time I had the money available, Saturdays trial was full, so only Fiddle and Rory got in! It was a pretty awesome weekend though!

One of my favorite part of the ACD Nationals is that we have our test classes on cattle. So, little Mr. Sue was allowed to do his HT on cattle! I was so pleased with the effort he gave in the dying light! The judges wanted us to get him razzed up a bit, but … More ACDCA Nationals – Sue
Chunky made her debut in Intermediate Sheep and Cattle. She really gave me wonderful effort… and one errant sheep got a nose bite, which got us excused, and in cattle, we couldn’t quite get everything down, so we got NQs (which is better than being excused). I just can’t wait for where our future is … More ACDCA Nationals – Chunky

She also participated in the versatility, finishing 7th in Conformation, 3rd in her rally novice debut with a wonderful score of a 97, and finished 3rd on started cattle. Her and Fiddle were within 10 points from each other, and … More ACDCA Nationals – Rory

Mazikeen, Chunky, Sue, and Rory worked cattle, and Fiddle and Mazikeen worked sheep. I am very proud of what my dogs are offering me! Gotta keep working hard … More Herding in Berryville, VA
I didn’t take any static pictures from this trip to Berryville, for some reason. However, I did take many videos which I posted to facebook and instagram. This video is a compliation of everything that we worked on. Driving, not pattern training, and being secure on stock. Sue is developing some, and Rory is now … More Herding in Berryville, VA
