Top Tips for Sheepdog Training (Part 1) Remember the Dog's Hunting

Sheepdog Training - teach your Border Collie, Kelpie or other herding dog to work sheep, cattle goats and other livestock.

This is the first of our free sheepdog training tutorials. They are shortened versions of the Sheepdog Training Tutorials on the Working Sheepdog Website.

We'll be posting plenty more in the future, so be sure to subscribe and you'll be informed when they are published.

The small dogs at the beginning and end of the video are not working dogs! The little Chihuahua on Gill's lap is called Eric. The red one on the ground is Alfie, and the white one is Chester. We forgot to mention their names in the video (sorry).
