a few notes to myself...
Quade...have been labeling the stand when offered and now getting it fairly consistent. I get a better send on him as he is anticipating the flank and is set up for leaving at a better angle...with 'the down' he turns into the stock , so gets up coming into them...note to self to watch for that as well.
Walk abouts with Sting continue....takes less time at the beginning of the lesson for everything to gel into a nice relaxed walk about the small sheep pasture....going to take the flock out into the cattle pasture for a more open area ...Sting is covering her sheep well in the sheep pasture so just stepping up on an other comfort level for her and see if she continues to cover her sheep.
Will need to work on taking sheep through a gate in that lesson....also need to get rid of the rake.
