Border Collie's have been bred to work sheep in the Lake district since the 1700's using genes dating back to their Persian ancestors and the hunter instincts of the wolf . |
It's an age old relationship between sheep and dog which also includes the considerable skills of the handler..Your task is to distance control both sheepdog and sheep and is where your experience begins..! |
