An seminar introduction to herding in the morning followed by a herding capability test in the afternoon. Where is it? At the Purina Farms Herding Field, 0.5 miles from the National Specialty show site. The property borders the main show grounds but can not be accessed from there. It has a separate entrance before you reach Purina (i.e. closer to the interstate). Requirements. The event is for Eskies only. Dogs do not have to be separately registered with AHBA. You may use their AKC registration number for identification. Before dogs are permitted to be tested with the sheep, they will be required to show ability to be controlled by performing a recall and a stand, sit, or down while in the ring with the sheep. People herding ducks! This special event is offered as part of the seminar as a fun event and a way for people to better understand what we are asking our dogs. We will be taking pictures! If you wish to herd a duck, you must sign up below. If we have more people interested than there are ducks, priority will be given to those people who will be testing their dogs on the sheep. Lunch. We will be breaking for lunch. Box Lunches will be catered on site and are available for an additional fee (pre-order only).
