Herding Training & Clinics
After continued success in herding with her Shelties, Tammy began offering clinics in 2008. As a serious exhibitor, Tammy knows what it takes to bring a dog to the top of its game at Advanced levels. Unfortunately, there are far too many exhibitors, trainers, and clinicians who will disregard the Shetland Sheepdog as a true herding breed or a worker capable of handling the challenges and rigor of herding.
Although a loving home is the most a breeder could ask for, the Faerie Shlties are more than versatile companions. They are working stock dogs and trial dogs; they can run in AKC, AHBA, and ASCA trials, earning Herding Championships, Working Trial Championships, and Herding Trial Championships. However, the same dogs who dominate the trial rings, also do farm chores and work as the set out dogs in trials. The dogs aren't obedience trained to move stock -- they have the stock sense and savvy to work independently to get chore work and advanced trial work done. There is no limit to what a Sheltie with the right instinct and drive can do.
If you are interested in scheduling lessons or a private clinic, please contact Tammy.

Client Dogs
From time to time, owners recognize their dog has talent beyond what the owners are capable of providing their dogs. Tammy has taken on dogs for owners and breeders to allow these dogs to show their talent, versatility, and prove these dogs are true to their breed's history. Tammy has worked with a number of herding breeds.
Tammy's experience and success in training and trialing can help your dog reach its potential on stock. If you are interested in seeing your dog reach its fullest potential in herding, please contact Tammy to discuss the details of a training program.
