skip Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 My friend is heading off to a herding clinic soon with his young kelpie. I will tell him about this clinic too as its much closer to us. I have a young kelpie and plan to do agility eventually but herding was suggested to me as well. I think my girl would love it. How old should dogs be before they attend a clinic and what skills do they need to be stable in before they can benefit? Do people camp at the property or where do they stay?

Perry's Mum Posted June 27, 2012 Author Share Posted June 27, 2012 People stay at the local motel or hotels in Yass, Binalong or Harden. There is camping at Harden or Yass where you can have dogs. It is good if your dog knows stop and come before they try herding but after that it is up to the dog - some take to it very young, others the instinct kicks in later. You can always come for a day to try it. If you PM me your email address I will add you to the mailing list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
