Michael is from a small coastal village named Armoy in Northern Ireland . Both his Father and Uncle use, train and trial sheepdogs.
He has had many accomplishments in UK. Qualifying for to be on the Irish team on numerous occasion to run in the Supreme International Sheepdog Trial.
As well as winning the Supreme in 2010 with his talented Cap.
He has been in Canada and USA since spring ,staying with Amanda Milliken for now when he is not traveling to run his dogs, give clinics and lessons as well as Judge trials here and Canada.
He won the Kingston sheepdog trial this past August with his bitch Flo, beating close to 140 dogs entered.
He was very easy to work with, calming and accurate in his assessment of dogs . He used calm, quiet technique to get his point across as well as the training exercises he offered to help fix problems handers were addressing . It was great fun and I am glad to have hosted him here at Swift Star. I hope to have him back in the future.
