They are getting so active. 3 weeks old today, Stevie is a wonderful mother.
Super proud of Fox. He scored a 75/90 on this run.
His fetch was much better today and had a few bobbles on the drive and then lost quite a few points on the last leg of the drive to the pen.
I am really happy to see how confident he is about driving sheep now.

Liza and Fox work pretty nice together. ❤️
SlashJ Eliza’s round 1 open run at Red Creek Farm. This is was her first time running in open, she ended up placing 6th and earned her first points for the USBCHA Finals.
More driving with MRF Fox. He is really starting to get it, he wants to slide to balance so I’m just reinforcing holding the line and maintaining forward movement.
He’s got such beautiful feel for his sheep, I don’t have to lie him down much. In fact, stopping a dog like him too much can create stickiness and other issues down the road. So for now I want him just always moving forward and pushing. He’s a team player and really wants to please me so it’s easy to handle him without much stopping.
Some training with MRF Andy (Grace x Clwyd Bob) today. Just getting her started on whistles.
Baby dog outruns for Fox 🦊.
New toys for the babies 🥰
MRF Eerie (Grace x Thatcher)
MRF Eerie (Grace x Thatcher) has been her for a couple of weeks getting her training polished up. She already had a nice start on her, Felicia Pynes just needed some help getting a few things cleaned up. I’m impressed with how quickly Eerie has caught on, she’s a very smart and fun dog to train.
