While the farm has dealt with some pretty bad flooding right now, we're due for some freezing temperatures and a few inches of snow again. This weather has been wild this winter, but the dogs don't mind the snow one bit.
I'm over the mud, but I'll take some days like this again!

While I've gotten a lot of exciting young prospects this winter, it's also time to start the next set of nursery prospects. Niamh will be a year old at the end of the month (time has really flown!), and will get regular, easy works where she learns to take care of her sheep. This is her first test, where I'll see if she can handle general training and pressure from the sheep, the weather, and me, to see if she wants to be a future trial dog. It's always an exciting time, when I get to see "what's under the hood" -- I'm ready to get her started!

Introducing SoElm Sian ❤️

Sian is my keeper pup from Chev's first litter with Indie from @southernelmsheepdogs . She's the sweetest creature alive, and reminds me SO much of her Great Aunt Jaida. I have many hopes for her, but for now I'll just soak up this puppy time with my first Chev daughter. ❤️

2024 was a wild ride. I crossed some things off my bucket list--Chev won a chair at Table Top! Me and Chev ran at Meeker, Chev won the shining star award, and I won the photography contest! We got our first open points together! We also went through some major changes and got rid of some dead weight around the farm (mainly an abusive, soon-to-be ex husband), added new faces (soon to be announced), and welcomed new puppies to the world, which includes Chev's very first litter. All in all we've ended the year happier and healthier than we've been in a long time, and I'm so proud of my dogs, and thankful for the amazing friends and family I have. I'm so excited for 2025 ❤️

Introducing the Happy Little Accidents!

If you missed my stories, I'm raising the Redbrooke Udon x Redbrooke Miso litter for their owners @herdyoulikeherders . Miso had an early, silent heat and was accidentally bred, but these were two lines I was hoping to cross anyway and expect some sporty, driven pups. Both Miso and Udon work sheep as well, and if you'd like to know more about the parents, check out their page on the website ❤️

These pups were born a little premature, but have been thriving and are now a week old. They're getting both ESI and ENS like my usual litters (with some help from @southernelmsheepdogs ), and have been perfect little chunky babies. While I have quite a bit of interest in females (and there is only one girl), if you're interested in a male I have one spot left, so please reach out!

A lot has happened so I'm going to have to go back to recap things!

First up is the Rush Creek trial that we went to out in Ohio back in July. Chev ran in one nursery (placing 4th, won a chair!), and open. In open he placed 14th and 11th out of 92 dogs, and really ran well for me! We earned our first open points, and I couldn't have been happier with him. I finally got video (which is now on his page on my website, thanks @southernelmsheepdogs). Fia also ran here, and while the field was tricky for her, she improved with every run. No placements for her, but I was proud of her by the end of the week!
