| Description |
Yesterday I drove to Unity, Maine to attend the Common Ground Country Fair. One of the fun things is to watch Border Collies at work. I took lots of stills but a video really is necessary to capture their energy and training. Several different whistles are used to let the dogs know what they should do. The Common Ground Country Fair is a fair in Unity, Maine sponsored by the Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association (MOFGA). In 1996, MOFGA purchased 200 acres in Unity, Maine, where the fair now takes places yearly. The fair "celebrates organic living, farming and growing," and all the food sold at the event must be organic. The fair regularly hosts 50,000 to 60,000 people. The fair is also host to a large number of political groups and activists. In 2009, there were 64 political or social activism groups in attendance. The Border Collie is a working and herding dog breed developed in the Anglo-Scottish border region for herding livestock, especially sheep. It was specifically bred for intelligence and obedience. Considered highly intelligent, extremely energetic, acrobatic and athletic, they frequently compete with great success in sheepdog trials and dog sports. They are often cited as the most intelligent of all domestic dogs. Border Collies continue to be employed in their traditional work of herding livestock throughout the world. [Wikipedia] |
