We had a fabulous time at the Fall Herding trial at Downriver farms. At just 15 months old baby Carlee made her debut in the herding arena and we had a blast. She came home with 4 passes in 4 trials in two days in AHBA and CKC. Carlee earned her AHBA JHD on Friday and her CKC HTs on the Saturday. All the judges loved her and she got loads of great compliments on her future.

We had a BLAST at the annual May long weekend Downriver herding trial. The boys of Zirkcreek absolutely brought it! Janel and Draco had a fabulous time, earning their first two qualifying legs in Herding Advanced with placements! They also earned a Stock dog intermediate leg on the Saturday with a First Place!! But their biggest and most impressive win of the trial was being awarded the Pepsi Prize, which is an award handed out for the dog who is the most kind to their stock! Draco is always kind to his stock. It was so nice to see that others saw his kindness at the trial! Congrats Guys!!
Jack had a fantastic long weekend in Laidlaw at the herding trial. Jack and I earned our Herding Intermediate title in three straight runs, with a first second and third placements.
