This is Rainey's second time to the post with me in PN. She is a much softer dog than Tess, Nan or Roo. She is like her sire, Scott, in the sensitive department. However, she has a heart of gold and will do anything I ask of her. She has gotten a lot tougher on sheep in the last few months.
Bill DeVoe was the judge and did this for three days (three rounds of PN) and he did a suprb job. He has a great sense of humor and made everyone feel at ease. I met Bill over eleven years ago at the Vashon Trial. They hosted the Handler's Dinner and it was a feast. He was very kind to me at that time, being a Novice and still to this day, is still a classy guy!
Walking to the post. She spies her sheep.
Making the fetch panels.
Holding the pressure on the rest of the fetch.
The lambs tried to make a break for it but Rainey told them otherwise.
Rainey says, "Do not enter this forbidden zone"
She is very tiny but full of herself.
I like the intensity in this photo.
Turning the post. They tried to make a break for it but she stopped them and got them back online. She is very quick.
Leaning on them on the drive. I actually had to slow her down.
Just missed one on the cross drive panel.
Walking into their head at the pen. We timed out.

Good photos Ron! The pic of Rainey turning the post is great. Her stride/passion on that turn looks exactly like her sire!
