Kinloch Sioux (pronounced 'Sue') is a daughter of Meg. Like her mother, Sioux has a huge engine and is very quick and athletic.
She is a very strong (and fast) outrunner and can go out for sheep as far as you ask her. She is a handler's dream being very biddable and is fantastic to command at any distance. Sioux is a confident driver, a good flanker, has a rock solid stop, and is developing into a very good shedder. Sioux is almost fully trained now with just a bit of fine tuning and experience needed on her bend outs and look backs.
Sioux is very loyal and would do back flips if she felt it would please her handler. She loves working and with her athleticism, she would happily work all day long. She loves hill gathering and the bigger the outrun, the better.
Sioux entered her first Open trials at 15 months of age in May 2008 and placed 4th and 5th on the hill courses at Bobby Dalziel's trials in Scotland. She was then put away for a couple of months to grow up. In September she had a good third placing in Open competition. These Open placings ruled her ineligible to compete in Nursery Trials, despite being of nursery age.
In 2009, Sioux replaced an injured Meg and was the (pleasant) surprise of the season. Her Open season started with two wins and 9 placings in Scotland. Sioux qualified for and competed in the 2009 Welsh National. |
In August 2009 she won her first Open trial in Wales and in September she won two more Open trials and her first South Wales event. Her 2010 trial season results to date are 2 wins and 16 placings. This little bitch just seems to be getting better and better.
