A working dog’s life is made of many stories and dramas, some large and some small. Life is never static, it challenges the dog to make decisions, choices, his or her mind grows almost every day. Few dogs in America get to make decisions, it is hard for many of them to grow and evolve. Red decided to be still while Liam challenged him, it was a good decision. After a minute or two Liam went back to the flock. He was testing Red, but he didn’t go over the line. If he did, he would have gotten his nose nipped.
