Updates:

March 2008 - I have a small brag to announce. Spur & Gambler earned their RD title today from judge Marti Parrish. Marti said Gambler is a good right hand man, and that Spur is very talented. She was particularly impressed how she worked the new born lambs. Only her fourth time working ewes with new lambs. It's no surprise that she is very good with our granddaughter who is now 7 months old. If she could just get into that diaper...also Marti said Spur was going to be a good cow dog. Come to think of it, I thought her duck work was pretty good too!

January 2007 - Spur was a star student today in our first tracking class. Although I never doubted her ability, she was practically perfect. Even being the youngest dog there she didn't take a back seat to the coon hound or any of the others. We were the only team who had never tracked before...haven't got a clue what I'm doing. Spur had the whole thing figured out & saved my ass. Tracking was recommended by Elsie. I've always wanted to try it anyway. We meet at Jan Wesen's place, then head out into the fields. This time of year, huge flocks of swans winter over in the stubbled corn fields. With snow draping the foothills, and the sun reflecting off the silver wings of the swans in flight, it just doesn't get much better. What a good day.
