One man and his dog
#1
On Saturday on the way back from Loch Lomond, we saw all these 4x4's parked, and suddenly we saw 3 sheep running with a sheep dog behind it.

They had a competion - dog trailing I believe it is - where the dog needs to get the 3 sheep into a pen. It was so interesting to watch the dog, as he is obedient to his masters whistle. Amazing. He finally got them in. The other dogs were all so restless - all wanting to get out there and collect the sheep.

It was quite facinating as I have never seen it before - alive that is.

Nice that you got to see that. I have always enjoyed watching these dogs on TV. They're totally focused and so intent on herding, I've seen them run across the backs of the sheep if the herd is too big and they need to get to the back. :woof:
