Colin to host the Hyden School
Colin and Jacinta, like all hard working farmers, have a million things to do and only a day to do them in. Those of us on the land know full well how that feels.
In between all the things he has to do, he has taken the time to invest in the discipline required to train his dogs with Ben Pages Natural Method. He and Jacinta did their Fundamentals in July 2017.
The time he has taken, has paid him a million times over. He now does all his stock work without stress on himself, his wife, or his sheep.
Both Colin and Jacinta were part of the "distance learning" system of the Working Dog Centre.
They have enrolled in the next stage - called the "Intermediate Working Dog Training School" - and will learn a lot of the tricks of the trade to make stock work even easier! No noise. No hurry. No shouting. Happy wife. (The happy wife bit is very important).
He and Jacinta will now graciously host the upcoming Fundamentals near Hyden, and the attending students are going to be using one of the best Round Yards I have ever seen...thanks to Colin.
