“Trying to sell the idea of a new pup to the children, on the other hand, was about as difficult as trying to convince them to eat chocolate.”
David Kennard, The Dogs of Windcutter Down: One Shepherd's Struggle for Survival

“Growing up on a far, the children had learned the realities of life and death. The old adage, “Where there’s livestock, there dead stockâ€� is not a flippant comment from a dispassionate farmer, but a countryman’s acceptance of the way things are, and always will be.”
David Kennard, The Dogs of Windcutter Down: One Shepherd's Struggle for Survival

“I’ve never been entirely sure what it is that makes trialing so strangely compulsive. Partly it’s an enjoyment of the company of my fellow sheepdog enthusiasts, many of whom are shepherds and share a unique understanding of the curious life we lead: partly too it’s a love of the sheepdog and it’s working relationship with man â€� but, to me at least, it’s also a sport rather than a hobby, and for that reason brings all the satisfaction, and frustration, that winning, losing and sometimes just competing brings with them.”
David Kennard, The Dogs of Windcutter Down: One Shepherd's Struggle for Survival
