As explained in the history of the Early Herding Sheepdog like a Border Collie, the dog’s natural prey instinct of chasing has been modified to chase or herd under the direction of a Shepherd, who is the dog’s master. So Herding Sheepdogs work from outside the flock, causing the livestock to bunch together in order to protect themselves from the dog.

Enjoy demonstrations of how these terrific dogs work with the sheep as well as their master.

PLEASE NOTE: Due to an injury, sheep herding is postponed for 2026.

We'll get your toes tappin' througout the Games!
