Description

Cutter is an 8-year-old male Border Collie that Russell has had since he was seven weeks old.  Russell notes that he has a “heart of gold,” and that he has never had a dog with so much heart, willing to give you everything, every time he works.  Cutter is Russell’s “best buddy,” happiest when he can be with Russell all day.  Last year he won the preliminary round at Meeker, a class of 135 dogs.

Russell is not new to competition, whether dogs or horses.  Russell was the longest serving Director of Judges at the National Cutting Horse Association, (for 17 years!), stepping down in 2019.  McCord oversaw tremendous change in the industry, from the quality of horses, to training styles to the increasing importance of technology. But whatever challenges were thrown his way, McCord’s goal always stayed the same. “All I ever wanted when I took this job was to try to make the competition as fair as I possibly could for the competitors, that’s all I ever wanted out of it.”  Russell competed in dog trials before taking on his position with the National Cutting Horse Association and is back at it at full tilt.  He is also a 6 handicap golfer!
