The Lacamas Valley Sheep Dog Trial will, for the eighth year in a row, be returning to Johnston Dairy Farm in Camas Thursday through Sunday.
An estimated 1,000 spectators came out to support and enjoy the competition last year, and this year is not expected to be any different.
“We try to make this a public event,” said Lynn Johnston, the trial host. Four people total run the show; Johnston, his wife, his sister and his friend. “We want to give people a chance to see these dogs at work. We want them to have a good time.”
Dogs can also enjoy this event even if they’re not competing. Well-behaved dogs are welcome to join their spectators in enjoying the show. There is a large tent for shade and some chairs, but spectators are encouraged to bring their own chairs or tents.
“We’re so lucky to have a place to hold this at,” said Johnston, referring to their farm land. “It’s really where it starts.”
