Yaaay! Visa passed her herding instinct test with flying colours.
She had never even seen a sheep before, so at first she thought "mm dinner." But as Diana (the lady who tested her -- she is a border collie breeder and runs herding clinics and lessons -- she's very nice) worked with her, Visa eventually learned to respect the sheep and even rounded up one that had drifted from the herd. Diana said that Visa is one of the best of her breed that she has ever worked with. She said that Visa definatly has what it takes. So next year we are going to go to one of her herding clinics and eventually I would like to compete. Visa had so much fun.
And on the way there, we had to stop off at every pet and tack store (naturally) and I picked up a bunch of stuff -- but the best thing I found was a yellow traffic sign with a Belgian shepherd on it and it says "Agility Dog." Can't wait to hang that up in my room!
So, my beautiful Visa is now "Attra Dea's Credit Approved HIC"So proud of my girl.
