Never have been in my entire life. I watched my dad die a painful death from lung cancer when I was 20. I had no intention of ever starting from a young age.
I had read that they were a herding class when we got her and think I remember hearing them announced at a dog show as being herding. Makes no big difference to me she was my girl.
