Herding dogs need jobs to do or they will become anxious and unhappy. When
acquired as companions, herding dogs require skilled owners who understand how
to draw out their best traits and satisfy their herding instincts. When acquired
as true stockdogs for the farm or ranch or as competitive trial dogs, they
require careful and consistent training. Herding I, II and III is a must-have
reference for anyone who owns or would like to acquire a herding dog.
A well-trained herding dog is among the most disciplined of all working dogs.
An Australian Cattle Dog driving steers across the wide-open plains, a Kelpie
jumping over the backs of tightly packed sheep in a chute to get them moving
again , or a Border Collie rounding up a flock of ducks at a show are impressive
sights - graceful, single-minded, and in complete control.
Put a working dog in charge of a flock of sheep set out to pasture, have him
drive a herd of cattle into pens, or let him wow the spectators at competitive
events. Herding I, II and III provides tips for finding and selecting a puppy,
and delves deeply into the training necessary to prepare a dog for trial
competitions or herding in the real world.
