D took Bogey and Georgia to Maryland for the CCWCC Specialty this weekend. I, UHM, quite happily remained at home with the rest of the Horde. I was "invited" to make a Guest Post in her absence, so this is my first attempt to entertain and engage you.
Regular readers might know that I have only recently become acquainted with Cardigans and have fallen head over you-know-what for their quirky and laugh-inducing personalities. I've been thinking about my limited exposure to their herding abilities, and how much I've become to love it so quickly. Unfortunately although I've taken both Bo and G to be instinct tested (see photos from G's introduction last weekend - thanks Dana!), and Bo has had a few herding lessons, it hasn't been enough for any of us. I crave that first herding “fix” feeling again -- not only could I (who knew nothing!) see that Bogey was hooked, but I also can’t forget the thrill of that occasional moment (I think once) of smooth perfection amidst the bedlam and confusion of a chasing dog and stampeding sheep. Alas, our herding lessons seem to be over in a flash. If only we lived on a sheep farm.... I'm looking for a very focused learning opportunity for both Bo and me. A weekend isn't enough for us.
