Another nice day with mixed sun & cloud in between passing rainstorm fronts. Back to rain for tomorrow & the rest of the week though. We had coffee and caught up on the news from the trial last weekend and the BCSDA AGM. I told Rose and Marg all about the clinic and my trip. In between we worked dogs. ;-)
Jayne is like a new dog since her 'come to Jesus meeting' with Lee last week. Took her lie downs instantly and didn't bust through once. Holding her off the sheep while driving as much as possible helps too. I even asked her to do the inside flank exercise along the fenceline. That was very hard for her - feeling all that pressure in such a tight space, but she managed to keep her head more or less. Owen was able to do the exercise much better too. The sheep were not standing as tight to me/the fence and there was no Lee to add to the pressure either. lol So hopefully we can continue to make slow progress and not slide back into bad habits. We shall see how it goes again on Thursday. Then probably no work this weekend with Halloween and bad weather; it doesn't sound like Pam will trailer her sheep to the big field.
