A very new type of sheepdog trial took place in South Lakes in October. A trial specially for new handlers. That includes people who have not yet got to the stage where they can complete a full course at a trial, those who have not yet plucked up the courage to enter a trial and those who have participated in the New Handler class at a trial.


It was a huge success and many thanks to Chris and Alan Bradley for going to the effort of putting it on. Let's hope that more seasoned trialists will do the same.




SHEEPDOG TRIAL
for NEW HANDLERS
Sunday 3rd October 2010
Class 1 Working a dog at hand
        (only for very first time competitors)


Very pleased to say that Handsome Lad and myself came 3rd in this category. I would like to have posted a picture of him working - but it was torrential rain when we competed!
