Working With Fate: Dog On The Hill

Working With Fate

Fate is still a puppy, she does not yet have the eye strength or presence to control the sheep, but I don’t think she knows that, and she never stops trying. In the morning, when Red has moved the sheep, I let him out of the pasture and let Fate work alone. She is very industrious, she runs around the flock, practices her eye, then lies and and takes up position on the top of the hill. At that moment, they are her sheep and she is utterly at peace with them.
