There’s nothing quite like that true gut instinct that tells you to be on the lookout. Like when a young working dog grows in its presence, displaying all the instinct of a well educated kelpie but with the exuberance of a teenager, unable to hold it all together.
It takes maturity and training along with discipline and an eagerness to please before all the paw prints align and the young dog comes into her own. And then she’ll work alongside you, as one. Forever.
