kelpiecuddles Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 (edited) We have all just got home from herding for the first tme with Herding Guy. Sascha looked great and seems to have some good natural ability to build on. The thing that blew me away though was Beau! I took him along so as not to leave him behind but we ended up putting him in the pen with the sheep! For anyone that doesn't know Beau is a lab X boxer with a bit of mastiff in the mix. It was amazing to see him herding sheep All up it was a great day, great dogs, great people and even the weather was fantastic There should be some photos later when the others put them on TRUST ME CLICK ON THE PHOTO OF THE GREEN SOFT CRATE AND LOOK CLOSELY!

Gamby Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 So glad you finally went to see Dave, Geoff and the gang at Mooreholm Park. They are all wonderful people. Bye the way to everyone at Mooreholm Park, Happy New Year to you all Dave is so easy going making him a great instructor. Did you see their dogs working?

kelpiecuddles Posted January 7, 2006 Author Share Posted January 7, 2006 I never would have believed that a big mutt like Beau could have a decent go at herding but Dave took him in there and got him started really quickly. Wow what an education :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kelpiecuddles Posted January 7, 2006 Author Share Posted January 7, 2006 (edited) he's a big dog though so he scares the crap out of the sheep :rolleyes: , if he got back and didn't work so close he probably wouldn't be too bad. He just a bit pushy sometimes. Is anyone else having trouble viewing the second two photos? Edited January 7, 2006 by kelpiecuddles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gamby Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 Hi Wagalot, I was getting photocopying done then buying stamps, folding Renewal Forms for 160 BDAG Members plus putting the stamps on the envelopes. I'm off to post them shortly. Then have to think of some games for the Geelong DOLERS who are coming to play tomorrow If your not doing anything come on down. We start at 2.00pm and finish about 7.00pm at 57 Coppards Road, Newcomb. Will be at Mooreholm Park next week. I think I'm down on the list. (Am I Dave or Geoff? Is Helen down on the list too?).

Gamby Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 Hi Sparty & Wagalot Now I know who you are Sparty! Your with the Ballarat Flyball Team. I'm with the Bellarine Flyball Team. I used to run Annabell and Mister Scotty a long time ago. Wagalot, Gambit is very good with the sheep. He isn't afraid to go in on the fence and move them out. When Dave is in there with him he works really well. I am just so unco-ordinated. when Dave was the dog and I was the handler I could cope with the sheep really well as I was watching the sheep only, not Dave. When I'm in with Gambit I normally use the rake in the worst way. So I'm changing over to the whistle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
