MaggieDog Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 The girls and I finally found a place to go herding around here. We've got an hour booked for this coming Monday morning! Yaaay - it's been almost exactly a year since Z was on sheep at 6 months old and showed little interest, so we'll see what she does now at 17 months; at 7.5 months she was interested in the sheep she saw at a trial we spectated at, so I have hope. Maggie will be happy to get into her work mode again - she loves playing at herding. Right now I don't have anyone who can play photog, but I'll bring my camera just in case I'm outside the fence or someone is available to get some. Just had to share the joy!

MaggieDog Posted August 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 Red Creek Farm in Townville, SC (Carol Anne and Jon Tholkes) - they didn't have available lesson spots a few months ago, but they're now opening some up on weekday evenings (and Monday mornings for me I think). Cost is $45/hour and you can generally work 2 dogs/hour. If you're free Monday at 9:30am you could join us as they reserved 2 hours since I said I might have a friend or two tagging along (ACD people I know, one I doubt can make it).

Dixie_Girl Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 Oh, wow Erin, that's who I've trained Jackson with! And yes, I want to go! As long as Lonny don't need me! Can I let you know Sun. night? I will be bringing Skip and Jackson, and my camera for you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PSmitty Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 Yay! I know how exciting that is. It took about 6-7 months for me to get in with our trainer. I'm excited for you girls. Hey, if Linda comes, then you guys can take pics of each other's dog! Have fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
