Our goals were 1) to complete the required AKC Mentorship forABC to hold AKC Herding Tests/Trials, 2) to reach out toBeauceron owners in this region and ignite their interest inherding with their Beaucerons, and 3) hopefully to make moneyto support future ABC herding events. At least, those were mygoals. As we were able to meet all three goals, I do, indeed,count these tests/trials a success.
The trials ran very smoothly with workers and regularexhibitors pitching to help when and wherever needed. AKCHerding Representative, Alison Ruhe, was in attendance andtold me that we did a “good job”. Lisa Cecin, Director of AKCClub Relations said in her recent email:
“We are pleased to hear that the ABC’s recently held mentoredHerding event was a success, and the ABC is now officiallylicensed to hold Herding events.”
In addition to the AKC Herding Test/Trials on Sunday, June 18,2017, PackLeader Farm, Barbara Davenport & Steve Weigley (ABCMembers) offered “unofficial” instinct testing and a seminarfor interested Beauceron owners. Two people came out withtheir 3 Beaucerons for instinct testing and to gain experienceand information about herding. Hopefully, that may mean moreexhibitors for the future.
I am pleased to report that with the generous contributions ofthe local ABC members and herding enthusiasts, we did makeover $600 from these trials! I hope that this money will beused to support future ABC herding events.
Although there were only 3 Beaucerons entered in thesetests/trials, we did get additional Beauceron owners to comeand join us at the trial with their Beaucerons. You can seethat we have eight Beaucerons in our group shot below, andthree more were there for Friday’s “unofficial” instinct
testing. Not a bad start!
Entered at the trial level in Course A Started Sheep were 2male Beaucerons:

Entered at the test level in Pre-Trial (PT) was 1 femaleBeauceron:
CH Magie Noire du Mont des Croisettes CGC (Magie Noire)owned by Pamela Frost
At the trial level, Falco and Luc represented the Beauceronbeautifully with a lot of drive and movement. Neither of thesedogs have much trial experience. In fact, this was the firsttime Falco and Luke competed on AKC’s Course A. Luc had earned2 legs on Course A Started Sheep at the ABC National in Dixon,CA last October. Falco and Luc received very respectful scores– and tied with 89.5 each! Wow, what were the odds?!
The tie was broken on the cross-drive where Luc beat Falco outby only 1/2 point to earn High-Scoring Beauceron for the AMTrial. That finished Luc’s 1st AKC herding trial level title –HSAs.
Falco now has 2 qualifying scores and needs only 1 more toearn his HSAs.
Luc narrowly won High-Scoring Beauceron in the AM trial andheld it together to win High-Scoring Beauceron in the PM trialas well.
Another winner was the cake we had with lunch to celebratethis inaugural ABC – AKC Herding Tests/Trials. So goooood!!!
