This is Merlot, she is a short coat,black tri color. She is small in size. She is my best friend, sleeping companion, and house dog. She is the best mother, taking very good care of her puppies, and all puppies in the house. She will play ball all day long, and will herd everything, dogs, horses, me, and of course the sheep. She loves to play, we do agility, herding, and obediance with her. She likes the first two the best, and just hummors me with the obediance. lol She has been the best thing for me. I got her when I was 6 years old, I just turned 14, I learned to trian dogs by training her. She was a very active puppy and I had to learn quickly, but we did very well for beginners. Merlot is ready for her A course on sheep, and we will be getting our title this fall/winter show season.
I didn't train merlot to herd...this came naturally, but because the sheep are new for us we did send her off for training. I am going to continue to work her and learn more about this herding thing, I guess I better because she will do it weather I learn more or not. haha. I have been to and watched a bunch of shows, and have also been the runner for the judge at the last 3 shows, I have learned alot by helping out at these shows.
Merlot's puppies are doing very well in Agility, herding and obedience. We have Merlot's Essex here with us and she is just amazing. WE will be competing soon with "Star", we have updted her page with working pictures.
