Getting back in to herding


Stafford

Recommended Posts

I hadn't done any herding with Grace, my border collie, for a few years when I saw the announcement for a herding instinct test at a local venue. I know that she doesn't need her instinct tested, but I thought it would be fun to show up and get her a bit of sheep time while I was trying to arrange training with my old instructor.

 

Bonus - they took video of all the runs, and pretty decent video at that. I think she's ready to get back in to it:

Gotta love Oregon (and Oregonians). Where I live... rain, that's a reason to cancel anything outdoors. Someone could slip on wet grass and get hurt, heaven forfend! 'Course, in Oregon, if you try to cancel something due to weather, it ain't never gonna happen.

Nice. I'm in the Couve and I hear good things about Dave. V.

I'm taking lessons with Dave Viklund now, and was back a few years ago before we took a hiatus from herding. I think he's great - super low key, easy going guy. The only potential problem is that he can be pretty booked up and difficult to schedule time for lessons.
