Sheep in all directions…
Scylla takes an almighty aggressive charge, and scatters the sheep in all directions. Four of the sheep leave the ring but, once under control, Scylla was impressive at times. She’s particularly good at keeping the sheep off the hurdles.
Unfortunately Scylla’s lesson was brought to an early end when a sheep collapsed with stress exhaustion. Fortunately, once the sheep was left in peace, it was soon up and about again. We continued training with a fresh bunch of sheep.
Bronwen’s performance was erratic at first. This was largely because she was distracted by the close proximity of some inquisitive cattle nearby.
