Declan McGee and Chip represent Ireland at World Sheepdog Trials in Scotland

Declan McGee and his five-year-old border collie, Chip, are set to compete in the World Sheepdog Trials in Scotland next month. McGee, a County Tyrone trainer, has been involved in the sport for less than three years and will also participate in the Irish National Sheepdog Trials at the end of August. The trials showcase the skills of sheepdog handlers, with competitors judged on their dogs' control and responsiveness. McGee's rapid ascent in the sport has been recognized locally, and he expresses excitement and nerves about competing on the international stage. The World Sheepdog Trials occur every three years.
