Navall Farm, Winchester, Ontario   
Border Collies & Commercial Sheep     

 

  Here at Navall Farm we use our Border Collies on a daily basis to help us manage our flock of commercial sheep. Without the border collie at our side we could not operate our farm. We are also the home of the annual Nation Valley Sheepdog Trials. This year (2007) we will not be hosting a trial as September is a very busy trial month and our new date - first weekend of October has the CBCA Championships scheduled (Pleasantdale, SK). Hopefully see you all in 2008.

Generally we breed one litter per year which gives me a pup or two for training - always looking for that perfect herding dog. At that time some pups are available to select homes. For more information about our border collies check out our border collie page.

The border collies came shortly after we got our first sheep, I realized that I could not manage the flock by myself, and Kate, my wife, was not always around to help me. Actually we quickly found out that not even the two of us could persuade the flock to go somewhere if they did not want to do so. To learn more about out sheep go to our sheep page. We are now using a White Dorper ram on some of our ewes and so dorper X ewelambs are sometimes available, as are other commercial sheep.
