7J Ike
5/23/2017 -6/29/2024

I've had a lot of dogs, I've lost a lot of dogs, but this one stings. Ike wasn't just a dog, Ike was truly my right hand man. In his prime, he was a warrior in the arena, and right up to his death, he was a warrior on the ranch.

He owed me nothing, and i owed him everything. I can't thank lke enough for all that he did for me and my family.

That'll do Ike, that'll do.

I've debated posting this video. But after reading several posts bashing videos of stock testing pups and dogs that bite, i've decided to post it to provide some context.

I'm gonna start off by saying that I don't give a rats ass about anyone's opinion and you shouldn't either. I l, like most raise and use the dogs I have out of necessity.

This is a 13 week old pup. This is his first look at stock. His parents are 7J Ike & SD Sky. You'll see in the video that this pup is very forward and isn't afraid to use his teeth.

What does this video show me in regards to this particular pup? Not much to be honest. If anything, it shows me that i wouldn't mind feeding this pup until his next test. I've seen pups look like this on their first look and turn out to be duds. However, I've never seen one that wasn't forward like this as a pup turn out to be what we consider a Cowdog around here.

Now there may be some that would say that a pup like this is a mindless thug with no natural ability and is biting out of fear. To those folks ill say, you could be right but the odds are stacked against you.

You see, both Ike & Sky had very similar stock tests (Ikes second would really light up the PETA lovers). Both were very forward with ample bite. Both turned into long distance dogs with a ton of natural feel.

Each "type" of dog, particularly stock dogs require a little bit different approach. A trainer needs to only look in the mirror if they're looking into why they cannot turn a forward alligator into a productive member of society.

So before you pass judgment and think your opinion is that of some importance, just remember that at the end of the day, no one really cares about your opinion.

Our ranch is currently working with the BLM on a fuel reduction project on a chunk of ground that previously had a grazing permit, but no longer does. Our goal is to put enough pressure on the cereal rye & chrat grass with intensive targeted grazing to suppress future growth and allow the native less combustible bunch grasses to return. The first picture is of the grasses outside of the fence. The second shows the grass after only 3 days worth of grazing. While Ideally i would like to move these cattle several times a day, but because of logistics and water placement, we can only do 3 day rotations right now.

My goal is to work with the BLM and show how a holistic approach to range management can benefit both ranchers and those opposed to ranching.

Said goodbye to an old friend this morning. Jess traveled the country with me, bouncing from ranch to ranch and was the first dog that I trialed. I retired her in 2017 and she went and lived with my uncle Heath & Aunt Jamie living out the rest of her days being a faithful (neurotic) goat watchdog.

Our dogs love black gold. They get used hard and always look top notch.

Fall works are in full swing. We're getting ready to ship our calves off tomorrow, and the dogs are ready for a little break. #bordercollie #cowdog #blackgoldpremiumdogfood #bigbendtrailers #tooeleveterinaryclinic #dropstitchinkembroidery #cowbossranchwear

Thank you, EVERYONE, for all of the calls, messages, and texts telling me happy birthday. I feel very fortunate to have surrounded myself with such great people, both near and far away. My circle has never been stronger. I spent my birthday doing what I do the other 364 days of the year, fixing fence & staring at cows butt's making sure they're where they belong. Thankful for the rain we received, thankful for my family, and thankful for you all.

Picked up our new whelping kennel from Elevated Custom Kennels @a1.stockdogs. Couldn't be happier.

Good boy Ike! I may be mistaken, but I'm fairly certain that Ike was the only dog to complete the course in every round of the series. Thank you, Lauren & D.J. Anderson for hosting an awesome series. It was first class all the way! Congratulations to Frankie Acosta as well.
