Hilarious! While I don’t train my own Australian Shepherds for stockdog trials, I have worked many with my local club, for our smaller arena trials with sheep, cattle, and ducks as well. “Dog broke stock” always seemed counterintuitive to me - if you want to test how your dog works, it seems silly to use livestock that have been used for practice so many times, they could run the entire course themselves with no dog or handler present. However, it seems equally daft to have dogs at the Started level, trying to work wild sheep or cattle that have never been moved with a dog before (ducks on the other hand, always seem completely daft, no matter how gentle or controlled a dog might work). I do find it hilarious to consider sheepdog trials, curling, and golf as sports inventions from Scotland! 🎉
