Corrie is blue white and tan, same colour as Mole. His half white face and blue eyes make him look rather colourful. He goes back to Bobby Dalziel's Wisp and John Thomas's Don three times so should have plenty of power and class.
Corrie came from a dairy farm and both his parents are cattle dogs. Corrie is started on sheep and cattle. He is a lovely character and I really like his attitude to life. He is extremely loyal and follows me closely round the farm. Nothing phases him and he is very sensible for his age. Corrie's mother is a 3/4 sister to Tammy. Corrie is good with children and other dogs.
Corrie is now well started on sheep. He is going both ways and walking onto them nicely. He works on his feet most of the time and I think he will be quite classy. He has moderate eye. Corrie calls off sheep when told and is quite natural in the way he works. He seems like he will be a natural driving dog and I expect him to be quite easy to train.
Corrie on bulk. These ewes and lambs are on 35 hectares and are quite wild. They live in family groups and the dog has to work hard to keep them together as they split easily. This is Corrie's first time on difficult sheep and he did well.
Facing up to some cheeky ewes.
Sort of an outrun! Corrie isn't giving much ground but he did get to the back of them.
Fetching them.
First time on sheep with me (below).
