Perky's Previous Updates - 2006

©2006 John Auer

• October, 2006: Perky runs in her first herding trials!

• August 6, 2006, Smyrna, DE: We manage a surprising 96 ½. Many starters score well today, and placements shake out as they should; we finish 7th of 15 (and now have a “leg” for each corner). Judge: Barbara Lockard, FL

• August 5, 2006, Smyrna, DE: Just out of the placings; we earned an 82, putting us 6th of 18. This earned us our third and final qualifying leg in just three starts, which means Perky has earned an HSAs (Herding Started A course, sheep) title. Judge: Bob Dias, CA

• July 16, 2006, Bangor, PA: A good run; I was very pleased with it. We earned a 92 ½, and placed 3rd of 13. Judge: Sherry Lee, DVM, FL

• July 15, 2006, Bangor, PA: First trial ever for both me and Perky! We earned an 89, a tie score. The crossdrive score was the tie-breaker, and we had the higher scoring crossdrive, so we placed 4th of 14 dogs. Judge: Judith Kelly, FL
