2005 Harlow's Hills Sheepdog Trial

We are very excited to be able to put on a sheepdog trial.  This will be our first trial and as anyone who has attended a trial will tell you, there is a lot of work to do to make a great trial.  Lucky for us we have managed to put together a very dedicated Trial committee.  Please click HERE for an entry form in .PDF format.  I have also posted the form at the bottom of this page.  It contains all the details.

09-01-05: We have posted pictures from the trial HERE.  Enjoy.

08-30-05:  Our first trial is behind us and what a trial it was.  We would like to thank everyone who made it to the trial.  We have posted the results HERE.  The sheep are now resting and fattening up for winter. 

Update 08-12-05:  I have updated the running order click HERE.  I have also added a details page that lists driving directions as well as how the classes will run.  Please click HERE to view the details page.

Update 08-10-05: We have released the running order.  You can find it HERE.

Update 07-23-05:  Today is the last day to send in your entries.  I hope you all got yours in on time.  We will wait for four days before doing the draw. 

Update 07-12-05:  Don't forget we are doing a pot-luck on Fri. night before the trial.  We are also looking for volunteers to scribe and help setup and teardown the trial field.  Please let me know if you can help.

Update 07-07-05:  Entries have begun to roll in.  We have several teams from California coming up.  Please let me know if you need an entry to be mailed to you either via email or regular mail.

Update 07-06-05:  Please remember that we are accepting "OLD" Nursery dogs as non-competes in the Nursery Class for the cost of a nursery run.  These dogs will not count for points or placing.  We are doing this to allow these young dogs one more run before they head to the National Finals.  Please note on your entry form if the dog is OLD nursery.

Update 07-01-05:  The Entries are now OPEN.  We are excited to see how many entries come in.  We extended the entry cut-off until the 23rd of July.  This is to accommodate the handlers at the world trial.  Hope to see your entry come in.

Update 06-24-05: We now have a judge for the Trial.  Lorri Schubert of Arlington, WA has agreed to come down and judge the two days of the trial.  On a side note, we will be publishing a volunteer list next week.  We need Volunteers for everything from Judge Hospitality to ATV-shuttle driver.

Update 06-22-05:  We now have a trial pen and panels built.  Lynn Johnston has been working hard to ensure we have a quality trial.  Thanks Lynn
