Another fantastic day at The Sheepdog Club. Lovely to see new handlers and their new doggy partnerships in the round pen, and others moving forward to the field. The day started in the clubroom with theory about how we choose a dog, and what to look for in a dog for the trial field.

Another great day at The Sheepdog Club. We started with a theory session on “where do the points come and go” in a trial course. Then we moved out to the training field. So much improvement from handlers and their dogs over the day.

Lovely to see some new faces at the club today! After just a few one to ones, it’s great to see the new members and their dogs already improving 🤩 well done to all of you as it can be a daunting experience running infront of others!
We hope everyone enjoyed and we look forward to seeing you next time 😉
(Thanks Nicki for the photos! 📸)

Another great training day! Today we looked at judging, we watched one of Marks past runs, discussing where he lost points. We then headed out into the field to train some dogs ☔️- was lovely to see some new faces today and we hope everyone had a nice time!
