My Very First Bred By Champion! She looks super leggy in this picture… but I at least look good right? Pocono Kennel Club Macungie, PA Judge: Edy Dykstra-Blum September 15, 2022 WB: CLARJOS AND AE’S IF YOU’RE GONNA PLAY IN TEXAS – 3 Point Major
Mazikeen is very much a teenager. She is very keen to work, unafraid of biting both ends, and is settling in as a confident worker. However, we are still taking some fly bys, and struggling with the concept of teamwork yet. She struggles to let go of the stock and do what needs to be … More Black Prong Larry Painter Clinic – Mazikeen
Well, I have been talking about trialing a LONG TIME now. And, let me tell you, I found a LOT of training holes, including getting the stock off the fence. Our outrun/lift/fetch need the most work. And I, as a handler, kind of lost my crap. Lots of yelling, and shrieking. The second day, I … More November Herding Trial: Berryville, Virginia

But, my friend Jacquie (awesome owner of Agility at the Farm in Illinois) convinced me to stick around after the trial (which was less than successful on her end) to work Mazikeen with clinician Dave Vickland. He was our judge at the trial the previous … More Road Trip Stop #3.5 Dave Vickland Clinic

Mazie was working in the smaller pen, switching directions on the fly, and trying to get more distance out of her flanks. Erin Eckert and Rebecca Elder were there taking pictures. It hadn’t rained in such a long … More Road Trip Leg #5: Larry Painter Clinic, Mazikeen
Once again, we travelled to the Flying Bucket Farm for an amazing clinic with Diane Sobel Meyer. Lots of thinking
