An afternoon of herding - Page 1

Between asthma and neuro troubles, I almost killed myself, but it was TOTALLY worth it.  Went herding with Ms Bitchypants (Wesson) and had a grand time.  Love what I'm seeing from her.  She was a total brat today in the best sort of way.

Very cool, Xeph. Look at her side gait, a perfect moderate flying trot.. You had to know I was going to say that

ْXeph, beautiful pictures, thanks for sharing.

Your sheep is long single coated, lol

Xeph,

 

What is that in your hand, a stick (rod) ?

Way cool, thx for sharing great photo's with us.  Nan

Ibrahim, it's a small whip

AKA:  a crop

No, it's an actual whip.  It has a popper on the end.  A crop is different.

Oh;  a whip.  OOOOH oK. 

Thanks for posting the pics, it's great to see the GSD  working stock.    Do you find that your dog gets as tired, or more tired doing stock work for the same amount of time as say, doing other work.     I think that the control and thinking that the dog must use are just as tiring as the physical aspects of the work.
