herding was....

AWESOME!!!!!!!

we have another lesson scheduled for a week from this comming sat. The instructor will be at a dog show this comming weekend, so we had to skip a week. :-(

AND!!!! on top of me finding a sport that he's actually into, he was so tired during our CGC/TDI prep course that he sailed through the "other dog" distraction without incident. I must remember to have him chase sheep before his tests.... though I'll also have to buy a case of baby wipes, bc he came out of the herding test covered in sheep pooo!!!!!!! (I guess that's what happens when you're only a few inches off the ground?)

As soon as he saw the sheep, he wanted in. It was SOOOO amazing to see that little light bulb inside his brain turn on. It was also really neat to see how he just knew to keep the group of sheep together. If one split off, he went after them and brought them back to the group without any kind of signal.
