Border Collies
Novice Dog of the Year award from the Mid South Stock Dog Association 2009

Ash is a full brother to Topper and 2 years younger.  While having a completely different personality, Ash is showing the same natural instincts and desire to work.  He is becoming benefit to our working farm and he and Steven are now competing at the Novice level
No Sheep farm is complete with out a good stock dog.
My 1st Border Collie Jute came before the sheep.  Due to her age and my lack of experience, training her to work sheep was not a complete success, although with her desire to work she does have her uses.

The star of the farm is Rocky Top.  With his natural abilities and willingness to please, he has taught me much more that I have him.  With out his help the daily running of the farm would be much more time consuming – and not near as much fun!

Top and I are now competing in the Pro - Novice Class in sheep herding.
Sage is the newest addition and has just begun her training.  She is of a completely different bloodline jlbordercollies.com and her enthusiasm to work is a challenge as well as exciting for a beginner like me.
