Here some of they are!  I took lots of pictures so right now i will only show just a few of each.  These are the people that i personally know there were several other competitors.  I will leave off the comentary cause i'll porbably screw it up. Pics are in order of runs throughout the day. Saturday was old dogs, and Sunday was derby dogs which is 2 and under.  I want to thank the men that i know and have been involved with.  Not many people get the oppurtunity i get and for that i am truely gratefull.  Saturday cattle started out bad first several guys cows would just run em over and go to the pens or jump fences.

Good job Brandon. I hope you got some shots of that six month old pup. The only legend in that last picture is Ben. Whenever I get to thinking I know something, I can talk to Ben and see how much I don't know.

I sure enjoyed meeting some of the folks on here and some that aren't. I learned a lot and there sure were some nice dogs working.

By the way, out of the two Catahoula entries one of them placed third, and for a while some folks were worried they'd win it! Lol there were some dang nice yellow dogs there though, I'll say that for sure.

Those are really good pictures Brandon; thank you for taking and posting them. I also enjoyed seeing old friends and meeting new ones this past weekend at the trials.

Dale Toon is the man with the run using the pup and the bobtailed dog. He placed third. The bobtailed dog is by James Camp's bobtailed dog out of a gyp that Dale got from Ben Jordan.

The young pup was raised by Rodney Spivey and turned 6 months old on the Monday after the trials. He was sired by a young dog that Rodney got from Clue Anderson from perhaps the last Cowboy and Sue litter. The pup's mother was sired by the Bear dog from Bigo and Skoal out of a gyp that has Harrison, Ashcraft and Jordan breeding.

The trials this weekend were a showcase for what I think are some of the best cow dogs that can be found; I hope that they will continue for a long time and the younger handlers will carry on the dogs and the work that the older hands have been doing.
