Wh'Ewe ... Day one underway..

Drown the nerves it's time to show! My youngest open dog sly on the post first.. After a 30 min lunch break.. Sheep and have been even and good. The outrun posed a problem for some and a few crossover's that failed to continue toward the sheep were called. The 4 dogs that ran prior to me failed to get the sheep.. Thank god for my smart outrunner!

Set out lost my sheep ( in most trials that wouldn't matter) however this one is difficult but... I quickly became very religious..Smart natural border collie dug them out from wherever they had gone.. it's a good sight at 650 yards to see a packet of sheep and your dog!

A few standout runs today were Angela Akers and sage leading the field, my sly running 2nd.. Michael burks and sport running 3 rd. Right now the sheep seem to like a meeker dog..we shall see tomorrow what happens! So far smooth trial! Good set out, great course and sheep and hospitality from bill slaven and family is great!!!

Remember this is typed on an iPhone ... Not responsible for bad grammar.. Blame it on the beer!

More tomorrow we hope ...
