Calling All Urban Shepherds

When we in the middle of buying our new spread, I had told some trialers out east about it - they thought the idea to have a get away from the hustle and bustle from citylife to the quiet of the rolling prairies was inviting. So.....here's your chance! Chance of an opportunity - throw away your cell phones (well they wouldn't work anyway, there isn't any service) and have a week (or two if you like) and be a shepherd with our sheep(a mosaic of Scottish Blackface, Khatadins, and a hodge podge of other non-descript sheep) - get away from the rat race (no we don't have rats here, even if we are in Saskatchewan) - come to sunny McCord, Saskatchewan (promise it won't be -30 out) and use your dog(s) for intensive grazing. Dogs, exercise (just a mile to the grazing area), sheep - who needs a membership to the gym? Roughly starting May 10th-come for a few days or a few weeks - it's up to you. You can even ride a horse if that tickles your fancy -cowboy hat optional. If you don't have a dog, we'll give you one (and you can train it since I don't seem to have the time). All this and a bag of chips! It may not be the world trial..but it's our world! Only breathing individuals need to register.
