@JesstheBorder Thanks for your nice comment. Backing sheep is an important skill for utility type dogs here in Australia and is certainly not the domain of only the Kelpie. As you can see Barney really enjoys his 'in close' work om these heavy sheep, but fortunatelty he is also an excellent paddock dog with a tremendous out run. A true Utility dog as we call them.
Barney works the yards.
