Weekly Lessons
The most popular way to learn herding with your dog is by attending regular lessons. During these lesson I work with you and your dog helping each of you (separately and together) learn about how to work sheep. While you can come at whatever frequency suits your lifestyle most people come once a week. Our students and their dogs get the opportunity to participate in the activities on our farm and gain important practical experience.
Weekly lessons are by appointment. I will take up to 6 dogs at a time for lessons with a 3 hour time limit on each session. Please be aware that the weekend slots are the most popular but they are also the most likely to be cancelled periodically due to other events such as trials, mini-camps etc.
The schedule below indicates the times i am available to give lessons and what level the class is set at if there are regulars that come at the time every week, the schedule is subject to change without notice. To schedule a lesson you need to as at least 48 hours in advance and not more than 1 week in advance. To schedule a lesson e-mail lessons@wolston.com or call 503-394-2021.
