Jan and I became good friends a few years later and in 1999, I brought home my own Hob Nob Border Collie and found out what it is like to have that connection, focused drive and determination!
I am primarily an obedience enthusiast (I've put an OTCH on 3 Border Collies as well as my Lab)...however, I have also fallen in love with herding and have been competing in that venue for about 5 years.
Reason has always been very focused and driven to work with me. Obedience and agility training came very natural to him because of his 'want to' attitude - whatever I want to do, he wants to as well. He is the most stylish/natural heeling partner I have worked, having natural attention and focus. I have been training him in obedience since he was 7 weeks old.
