  • i love thes dogs! im getiing a and austrilian shepard puppy on easter!!! ^_^

  • That Rottie is an awesome herding dog! I like the way he saw the area the geese were going to and stood there to make sure they didnt try it again. The aussie was doing a good job too but I was more impressed with the rottie. I love to watch dogs use their brains and do jobs that just amaze me.

  • I love watching these dogs doing the job they are bred to do!

  • Actually the Aussie is doing a great job. He is relieving pressure on the stock in order to keep them moving forward at an even pace. If you notice, at the beginning the Aussie was able to get the geese perfectly through the first obstacle w/o undue stress on the stock and the correct direction as well as through the second obstacle (gate). Where you may think he is bored (sniffing) is his way of relieving pressure.

  • Actually, yes. I have geese (Chinese), a variety of ducks breeds, sheep and cattle. Each require a different type of working finesse. Some geese are combative (Chinese). There are times when I need to separate out the geese from the ducks and a dog which has the training and instinct/ability to work them is a the equivalent of ten men, imo. Grain, feed doesn't always work in moving stock - especially when they don't want to go where you want them to.

  • I love herding breeds and like that herding skills are being maintained but....does anyone ever really need their geese herded?

  • Typical Aus Shepard. It's looking for the XXXX

  • this shepherd looks lazy and bored, doesn't do his job carefully :)

  • geese rock they are so cool
