nickyp Posted December 11, 2005 Share Posted December 11, 2005 (edited) I'm tired, I'm dusty, I have a headache from standing around in the sun without a hat ... I had a fantastic day!!! :love: Thank you to Dave, Jeff, Tuppy, Rosey, Scout and Moorholme Park for hosting us and showing us how it's done. To see Em doing what she's bred to do - even biting the sheep - was absolutely wonderful. We'll definitely be back for more and next time I'll bring my other dog. I've put a few photos on this thread in the Photos forum. Edited December 11, 2005 by nickyp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedds Posted December 11, 2005 Share Posted December 11, 2005 Here are a few pics from today. I took nearly 300 photo's and am just too beat to get to them all tonight. The ones of your dogs out in the big paddock are by FAR the best, so I'm saving them for tomorrow night. Have kept them small, so we can have more and everyone can see them. I'll start with dogdayz rescue pups. A little over a week ago, these pups were on their last few hours at the pound. dogdayz put her hand up to foster them, and brought them along today to see how the would go. The monster girls are 12 weeks old, and sooooooooo cute. Erm, if anyone is interested in a herding pup, one showed just a 'slight' talent for it. See for yourself.

Hedds Posted December 11, 2005 Share Posted December 11, 2005 'Uncle' Scout (Davids dog) watching she was going ok. She didnt really need his help..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickyp Posted December 11, 2005 Share Posted December 11, 2005 mmmmm...everyone says their dogs are tired, the two pups have made a marvellous recovery and are racing around home again. Em kind of slid out of the car when we got home and collapsed on the back verandah for a while, then when I looked outside about an hour later, she was clowning around with her favourite ball! She's crazy!! She's lying on the couch now looking completely done in, though, and I think she'll be a bit stiff and sore tomorrow. Actually, I think I might be a bit stiff and sore tomorrow, myself... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

herding_guy Posted December 11, 2005 Author Share Posted December 11, 2005 Hi guys, Thank you to all who attended today, you were all so great. I wish it wasn't so hot for dogs, sheep and handlers. Yogi and Conner - WOW what a big dog - you've put my faith back into the breed. Can't wait to see him at it next time. Yogi, you keep up the great work with that little fellow. Hedz and Banjo - Thanks so much for being the official photographer and putting your life in danger of the stampeding flock of sheep. Banjo, thanks for playing with Scout, he doesn't get to work with many dogs. Slim and Hagrid - That Pitbull is a Kelpie in disguise - I'm sure he is Scouts long lost brother. You guys were fantastic. Slim keep up the good work with Hagrid he is a dog to be admired. Give Hagrid a sheeps ear to lick tonight. Hopenfox, fox and Hope - WHAT A KELPIE!!!!!!!! (but he is a kelpie and we'd expect only the best) - keep going. Hope looked lovely in the large paddock, good to see he coming out of her shell. You are a skillful handler keep it up. Nickyp and Emmy - You can cross the heeler with a kelpie but you can't take the heeler out. Who'd believe that energy was hidden away in that sweet little pooch. Even Scout looked amazed at the power behind that dog. Dogdayz - Sky, your dog was magic to watch, she needs calmer sheep next time - I'll organise it because I'd like to see her develop. That pup was amazing, suicidal but still amazing. Must be the heeler in her. This dog deserves a good home - someone on this list please grab this dog, she is loads of fun. Again a BIG thank you from all of us and the dogs. You guys make it magical. Dave, Geoff and the gang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
