| Mick: (Border Collie) Mick is my number one dog. He is my right-hand-man. I cannot say enough about him to do him justice so I will just say he is strong, smart and my best friend. |  |
| Gale: (Border Collie) I bought Gale as a puppy from Rusty Childs. She has taken training well and is one powerful sheepdog. She has a clean nose bite and is forceful enough to move anything either in the yards or in the pasture. She has had her first litter of puppies and they are looking great. |  |
| Buck: (Border Collie) Buck is one of two Border Collie pups I bought out of Long Creek Oregon. They are from a Cattle Ranch. |  |
| Greg: (Border Collie) This is also one of Jorge's (Herder) dogs. He is a full brother to Bobby but with a natural outrun and extremely easy to train. He has great sheep-sense. He is a smaller dog with a medium coat. This is Jorge's number one dog. Greg lives for work and making his handler happy. I see a great future for Greg on our ranch. |  |
| Dos: (Border Collie) Brother to Buck. He is doing well here growing up as a future sheepdog. This is a new photo as of Summer 2009. |  |
Katie's dogs:
| Zack: (Border Collie) Zack is katie's main ranch dog. He works hard for her. |  |
| Pepper: (Breed Unknown) Pepper is the only non-working dogs we have on the ranch. Her job is to protect Katie when I am out of town and general comedy relief. She has been with me the longest of all my dogs. |  |
| Carlos: (Border Collie/Australian Cattledog) Katie bought Carlos from a local cattle ranch in the summer of 2007. He is coming along very well as a pen dog. He is small but works very hard. |  |
Past dogs:
| Bobby: (Border Collie) He is small with a rough coat. He is a very good driving type dog with lots of push and a very biddable personality. SOLD: I sold Bobby to a good friend of mine, Lou of Northern Idaho. Lou needed a good biddable dog to help him on his ever-growing flock and Bobby fit the bill. Bobby is gun-shy so it was sometimes hard for the herders when they had to protect the sheep in the mountains. Bobby will for sure be missed. |  |
| Jake: (Border Collie) Jake is Gale's son from her very first litter. His father is Don Helsey's Cap, a fantastic dog. Jake started his working career with lots of push and natural sheep-sense. He has started working in the mountains this summer. RIP, He was very promising and learning fast. We lost him in an accident in Oct. 2008, he was 11 months old. |  |
| Bill: (Border Collie) Bill is from a cattle ranch in Sand Point ID. His father is Sue Wessels' Jax. I sold Bill to Cameron. |  |
| Guy: (Kelpie) Guy is out of Robbie Agard's female, Fern and his male, Taco. Guy is young but seems to be taking to training very well. He is now working for the Lanthorp sheep/cattle Ranch in Eastern, OR. |  |
| Sioux: I sold Sioux to a semi-retirement home in Eastern CA. He will have a great life there working a small flock and playing with the kids. Sioux is greatly missed. He is calm, thinks for himself, and is a great trial dog as well. Sioux has won some trials in the south and here in the Northwest. Sioux is a rough coated, tri-color male with a big heart. Sioux has since passed away from stomach cancer. RIP |  |
| Gwen: (Kelpie) I bought Gwen as a puppy from James Farnham of AZ. I started her and she is now working and trialing for her new owner in Utah. Gwen is a very talented Kelpie who should do very well for her new partner. |  |
| Hoodie: Hoodie is one of the most dedicated Border Collies I have ever had the pleasure to know. He is a litter mate to Sioux. He was given to me a couple years ago by Sue Wessels who trained him from a puppy. I trialed him for a year and then used him as my primary ranch dog. We retired Hoodie recently to a small sheep ranch in Easter Washington state. |  |
| Dillon: (Kelpie) I bought Dillon as a three month old puppy from a local sheep rancher. He was one of the first dogs I owned and started myself. I ran him at the USBCHA sheepdog finals in Nursery. Dillon was equally good on cattle and sheep. He is now working with a rancher in Nevada who just loves his never-say-die dedication to work. |  |
