Our ranch and kennel are located in the farming community of Caldwell just northwest of Boise, Idaho. We are now offering the use of our facilities and livestock on a limited basis to novice through advanced handlers. Our facility has a variety of working arenas and equipment suitable for all levels of competitive herding. Novice stock handling clinics and herding lessons are also available on a limited basis. Visitors always welcome.
See our links below for more herding and breed information and also learn a little about my own experience. If you would like more information about our facilities, herding lessons, upcoming events, or our Corgis, please send an e-mail or write us at:
