It is fascinating to see Fate maturing, she is developing Red’s laser-like focus on the sheep. She is still somewhat distractable, but she is only four months old. In the morning, we come into the pasture together, Red gets set, ready to go one way or the other to move the sheep where he is told. Fate watches him, ready to follow his every move. After he gets to work, then I put him inside and Fate gets to work. Every day she grows, changes, matures.
I think Red has been an inspiration to her, and a role model. He rarely pays any attention to her, but he always knows where she is. They are a powerful team together, something I had not really thought to much about, but something that is very beautiful and joyous.
