Ukulele – Cappy Pruett
June 23, 2023
So, part of the missing May journey is documenting… our rebuilding process. I love Uke for a lot of reasons, but we really kind of fell apart. So, at the May Dave Viklund clinic, I really set up and started everything over again, and are building different methods of communication and quiet reassurance and confidence. … More Ukulele – Cappy Pruett

So, while Fiddle is on maternity, the other Red Dogs and I decided to do some trialing. Mazikeen finished her started cattle title on a tough group of calves on Saturday.

So, Ukulele had her 5th Birthday at the Jersey Shore Cluster. This show had CAT, FastCat, and Dock Diving, on top of conformation.

June 2, 2023
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. Mazikeen, … More Annapolis and Carrol Kennel Club
Mazikeen – Cathy Hartley – Dayton TN – Road Trip Leg 1
May 16, 2023
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
