We are creating this premier competition for dogs UNDER 4 years of age to showcase the natural ability of the Border Collie through a judged outrun and lift, while rewarding calm control of the sheep. This format emphasizes stockmanship and thoughtful handling over speed. With significant payback on the line, this event is designed to reduce subjectivity while honoring correct, deliberate work. The course will highlight teams that demonstrate the strongest combination of instinct, precision and partnership. By focusing on young dogs, this competition celebrates the future of our working Border Collies.
