That has come up at the Board meetings once or twice Sally and we are really
trying to avoid that.
Too many people love the herding AND the Conformation. ( me ) and ideally and
for the sake of
the National itself and the Exhibitors in both ...... it should all be
capsulated together.
I believe Utah is one of the sites where it will be all on one site much like
Perry for that. Herding
will be right there.....Herding is one of the reasons it would be great to find
a three or four permanent sites............and well worth the effort if it
happens.
ANYONE that is at the National for any reason...... to watch, exhibit, etc.
should take the time to
watch Herding. It is the most beautiful / natural ways to watch your dog
WORK physically and
mentally and watch it's natural decision making. Once you watch herding you
will never be
impressed with JUST a good front or rear.......you will see the entire athletic
physical body come
into play ......the whole dog in action! It is a real LOSS that there is no
herding near the site
this year.
Herding is the very beginning of why we have this Breed and why it's instincts
make it so versatile
for being a family pet, Search and Rescue, protection dog, etc. Everyone
should watch the
GSD Herding. You are missing what the Breed really is if you never get a
chance.
We should NEVER even consider Herding to not be a part of our National. It
is actually a big
reason the Breed and some of the people involved in our Breed are remaining
active now.
This Breed is aware of where you are all the time, even if you are in the house
and it is in the
yard.......just one of the basic instincts that make it a great herding dog AND
family pet.
It's awareness of property lines, and what is going on and where you are all he
time make it
a great protector. Try to go to a Herding Trial where there are GSD some
day....you won't
be sorry. Maybe it will be at one of the Nationals. <G>
When your dog is a top Show Dog........and a great Herding Dog....there is no
feeling like it.

So how big is the herding trial - would it be feasible to have a separate
national herding trail? That way the whole national site would not be made as
difficult to find. Take some of the best herding sites and rotate them around
Just asking - I have no knowledge of herding
