RESULTS:

Herding at the 2011 National in Scio, OR, concluded on Thursday, September 15, with the annual Herding Instinct Testing. Ian Caldicott, who owns Wolston Farms which was where the Herding Trials were held at, tested a total of Twenty-one Border Collies (and one Papillion). Of that number, Twelve were evaluated as “passed”. The requirements for passing the evaluation and articles about evaluations appear on the BCSA web site under “Herding Central”. The dogs which did not pass may pass at another time if exposed to sheep again in a different environment or at just an older age.

Have you ever wondered how your Border Collie(s) would react if he/she saw sheep and what instincts would come alive? Here’s your chance to find out while you’re at the National. You can have him/her evaluated at the 2011 BCSA Specialty on Thursday, September 15 from 10am to 5pm. No prior experience is necessary for you or your dog.

Those dogs showing instinct will receive a certificate from the BCSA on site if you pre-register. Please indicate a second choice for time, date and mail to the address at the bottom.

We guarantee you will have an interesting and enjoyable experience but take no responsibility for what the experience may do to alter your life style!
