Shows 19 different
herding breeds in action. Starts with a Border Collie & a Kelpie to explain and show how the
strong-eyed breeds work. The remainder of the video looks at upright, loose-eyed breeds and ideas
to handle problems that are common with them. Starts right with the dog's first introduction to
livestock - ideas on what you can do for problems such as quitting work, circling, gripping,
splitting the stock. Once the dog is balancing and working for the handler you will learn what
skills are needed for arena-type trials and ideas on how to teach those skills. Also discusses
instinct tests, negotiating obstacles, and "what's next." (42 minutes) |
