Meeker is the next top sheepdog trial as western folks and central folks work their way to the USBCHA Finals. Noted for its tough terrain and crafty sheep....it is certainly not a trial for the faint of heart! Where Soldier Hollow is an "invitational", folks being invited by winning certain trials around America or being a top world handler....like Mr. Basson from South Africa; Meeker is an open trial....handlers get in by the postmark on the envelope on their entry form!
I'm not so sure the webmaster for the Meeker trial is going to post scores....maybe on the last day hopefully. This will definitely put a damper on my attending the sheepdog trial vicariously through the Internet! So far here is what I know...thanks to Elizabeth Baker who is posting some of Facebook. Haley Howard is the Judge. They are running on lambs....and the course time is 11 minutes!
Check out their website and learn more about the trial,handlers, and dogs
