G'day, on Sunday (Aussie time) there will be a item on the National Yard Dog Championship.

The dogs are working a "mob" of 18 sheep,so its more like what a farm dog does every day.

I will try to get the link and post it for you all to have a look at.Like the Goat one you may have to view it on the Facebook page.Anyway we will see......T.O.R.

G'day, getting most Kelpies to "back the sheep" is not that hard ,the trick is when he/she moves the one "blocking' the race" they drop down and run between their legs to keep them moving.Glad you enjoyed....T.O.R.

G'day folks,here is a short clip of Tina (our latest pup).Today we were moving the ram group over to the yards when without instruction Tina took up a position at the rear of the group and was moving from left to right to hold the sheep close to the fence.One large ram stopped and turned towards he but she held her ground until I called "her off" so she would not get a "knock" from the ram it he took unkindly to her attention....T.O.R.
