I worked Dot today, and her little 3/4 sister Mist. I had sooo much fun. I'm not sure that much fun should be legal! Dot got a little amped up so I went back to some of the work I had been doing of "showing" her and laying her down before her mind got in her way. As soon as she felt settled, I went back to the bigger, more complicated stuff. It was not perfect but damn was it fun!!!!
Mist is doing great as well. I am trying to show her she is okay inside the pressure point. More fence work and tight work is in order because she too looks awesome as long as her distance is spot on. She does not like to tell the sheep anything though so I'm believing confidence is needing strength.
Tomorrow Miss Gyp is running Open N/C at a fun little winter trial with a big huge drive! Shed, pen, single.....I can't wait to see what Gyp thinks of all that. If it goes to hell in a hand basket I might just get to the work at hand and see where we are. But I am believing she just might shine; as long as we don't get one of those wily old shetlands.......we have been working hard on all that can happen. I'm sure there will be a lot learned from the day.
Seize the Day!
