Herding

At puppy kindergarten Krishna, who I’d purchased as a pet, displayed overt herding behaviors.  So I decided to take him out to our herding facility to see how he’d do on stock.  We’ve managed to earn our AKC HT title and our ASCA STDs title.

I worked Lana pretty regularly as a young puppy, but stopped working her on stock due to her health issues.  When I decided to take her to the specialty I wanted to put her out on stock again.  It seems the only thing she retained from our foundation training was the stop.  So lots of work to do together if we’re going to keep working stock together.

Below is a photo of Lana earning her PT.

To the left I am swinging the stock stick up to signal a stop.  Krishna doesn’t look thrilled with the command.

Here we are again, Krishna walking nicely behind the sheep.  What a nice picture!
