Lenore’s sheepherding is not really progressing, although it has hit a comfortable plateau. She likes sitting near the sheep when they eat, and they are at ease with her, and she seems to enjoy watching Red work. She does not seem interested in “come bye” or “away to me,” and doesn’t care whether the sheep go off and try and grab the donkeys’ hay (which causes some tension in the pasture.) I think she likes being a herding dog.
