I really need to get back on writing up thoughts on the herding, but a lot of that requires introspection, thought, and time to come back, so we are going to fast forward to mid May, and drop in the results from conformation shows, as that is much more of a copy, paste prospect.

Well, with Mazie, we are still working on impuse control and walking up. We are geting a much more thoughtful, deliberate driving, but she often will lean with her shoulder to try and get around to the butts to bring them back on a gather. She is also very “sticky” in giving her stock up … More Mazikeen – Cathy Hartley – Dayton TN – Road Trip Leg 1
Well… sometimes, you wait an entire year for a clinician that you love to return… AND YOUR DOG DOESNT LOOK LIKE THEY IMPROVED AT ALL! So, these cattle were very different from what Mazie is accustomed to.

Right now, Mazikeen and I have been working on learning how to drive. We have had some setbacks when it comes to understanding how to move and gather cattle. Mazie is really struggling with adrenaline control on cattle right now. On all other stock, she is doing much better as emotional regulation. With cattle, she … More Herding with Erin: Road Trip Leg 4 – Mazikeen
Now, we are on the way to work Agility Nationals in Tulsa, OK. And I decided to stop at Tim Allisons House (in Dayton, TN) for another set of lessons. Miss Chunky has not been on sheep in a VERY long time, and I think that she nearly knocked me out with her intensity and … More Herding Lessons with Tim Allison – Road Trip Leg 3
One of the people i miss the most since leaving North Carolina is Claire Apple, who knows how to read and train canine body language more than anyone else, So, after the judging seminar wrapped, I headed out to Pittsboro, NC to see some friends. Uke and I were kind of having a bit of … More Herding Lesson with Claire Apple – Road Trip Leg 2
Well, I am but a girl with a dream! To learn everything I possibly can about the herding dogs brain and body! I am on a quest to learn how to be a conformation judge, to be the best herder, to be the best person in the show ring, and to be the best breeder … More March Road Trip!
After we were able to stretch our legs in cows, pushing super hard to move the highland cows, we have to dial down and work lambs and sheep. It has taken about 6 months to get her to stop using her eye to push on the stock on the shoulder. She has such a strong … More Mazikeen – Dialing Down
