BORDER COLLIE
NATIONAL SPECIALTY October 10-16, 2005 HERDING JUDGE JUDITH KELLY |
I
raced Siberian Huskies, and Alaska Huskies for 25 years in sprint races
winning a gold medal (based on accumulated points in the International
Sled Dog Racing Association. Many of my Siberian Huskies were exported
to Canada winning on the trail and Best in Show. Five went to Norway to
establish breeding, racing and show stock there. Kim a Border Collie was
leading a team of Siberian Huskies, and after being around Kim I had to
have a border collie.Kim went from bringing cows into a dairy to racing.
I saw this dog gently herd a mouse into a kitchen match box.
I have been involved with the A.K.C. herding program since the beginning. I trial and train my Border Collies in A.K.C. as well as U.S.B.C.H.A.. Last year I qualified 2 open dogs and 2 nursery dogs for the Nationals Finals. I live on 10 acres, have 50 Katahdin sheep and a training facility that hosts an A.K.C. trial in December.
