Bergère is aptly named! Her name means "shepherd" in french, she is a very talented herding dog. She's respectful of the sheep while knowing how to impose herself if necessary. She quickly understands what I expect of her and knows how to show initiative. She works with calm and confidence.
She has done a few trials on sheep with great succes and several High In Trial or Reserve High In Trial. Our favourite trials are the one with large flock (25 sheep and more) and ranch style, with open fields and tasks to do that reflects the day to day farm chores like moving a group of sheep from one pasture to another, move them trough the footpath, etc.
She has done a few clinics on cattle and demonstrates great skills. We will continue in the future even if my objective is to work mainly on sheep.
She also does traction sports, she started sledding in the winter of 2022. She loves it! She is very motivated and brings speed to the team. She loves to be in the lead position and she learns the work with her sire Nota Bene.
On a daily basis Bergère is a very affectionate dog who loves hugs! She is very calm in the house and gets along well with the cats and the other dogs.
