A Herding We Did Go :D
« on: January 22, 2006, 07:17:37 pm »

Long time no see, all my BPO pals. :D

quick Penny update:

We won another BIS and Res. BIS in November. 2 more points towards AKC title in December. She is up to 7 pts now. We are out this weekend to try for the last 2 singles she needs before majors.

She is growing up very nicely, and will turn 18 mos old this Saturday. This weekend will be her first weekend out in the Open class.

Here are some photos from our first time out on sheep. She showed strong instinct, and had a really great time. We will be working towards our goal of a Herding Started title over the next year or so.

Here are a couple more photos.

In this one you can see her intensity. She has a lot of "eye" for a Rottweiler...



These are 2 more participants that were there today. The GSD puppy is only about 12 weeks old. She did a super job too! :D

Thanks, Red
Penny has grown more massive than I ever expected for her age. She is an outstanding representive of her breed.

Welcome back, Red. As usual, when you post I learned something new. I had no idea that rotties could be used to herd sheep, the possibility never crossed my mind.
