Sassy

 

  • Sassy on the right

    1My son Bryce acquired a new dog Sassy a young bitch. the last owner had said that if he did not get rid of her that day he was going to put her down. The first time Bryce put Sassy onto one of my training boars she did not do much. This time I have said to Bryce that I will look after her for a week or two and get her started on the pigs. This footage is of her first run when one of my young boars came down to the dog kennels to give them a stir up. I first got Jeff to bail him while I put a collar on Sassy and tried to get her to join in. As you will see she was a bit standoffish for a start so I added Snow in as she has been playing with him. This did help but I could see she needed things to ramp up the pace. Letting Fog join in defiantly picked up the tempo, getting the boar to break also gets a dog keen to join in. By the time I called the dogs off wee Sassy was doing well. This makes me wounder how many people get rid of dogs without giving them the chance to prove themselves.
