Aron's Trials diary is HERE
Aron is a very clever young lad. I started introducing him to sheep when he was about 8 months old as he was starting to get into mischief from boredom. The first time to sheep, he had mastered his lie down and walk forward commands. I would hardly believe what I was seeing. By his third time on sheep, he knew 'come bye.' Fourth time, he had mastered 'away' as well. It was then I realized he was a very quick learner. |

Despite taking his training very slowly, Aron ran the nurseries at 15 months of age. He won two nursery trial and had some minor placings. He finished 3rd overall in Carmarthenshire, behind kennel mates Ciaran and Leith. He was Reserve South Wales Nursery Champion in 2017, 9th in the All Wales final and then 10th in the European Nursery final after putting up an outstanding run in qualifying finishing 2nd behind World Champion Jaran Knive. At the Four Nations Nursery Final, Aron placed 4th overall despite being one of the youngest on the field.
Since the nurseries, I have been offering him more challenging work situations. He has now mastered all of the outruns on our farm and is showing an adeptness to be guided anywhere. He is fantastic to command and can think through situations on his own. He is a terrific shedding dog with both spilts and sorts. An all-around terrific dog with a fantastic temperament to match. Aron is now in the USA competing in Open trials.
