For anyone interested, there are also CKC stock dog/herding trials near Fergus (north of Guelph) on Aug. 21-22. Check www.canuckdogs.com and click on Events and then Herding, for more info. If you own a herding breed, you'll enjoy seeing what it's all about. After all, it's your dog's heritage.
Sounds like a great event. I hope this hot and humid weather breaks before then!
