    It's YOU who trained those dogs, right Sean? The skill set it takes to teach a dog how to be a reliable herding animal must not be underestimated. When you speak of the brilliance of these border collies, you must also give honorable mention to the teacher. Kudos to you for your hard work and success. Your dogs are truly magnificent.

      There is nothing so rewarding as having well trained dogs. The dogs so appreciate their people being able to effectively communicate with them so they understand what is expected of them and they naturally want to please. It gives both the people and their dogs such mutual joy.

      My grandma's old dog took a nasty cow kick to the head and refused to help with cattle anymore. It was my job to bring the herd in from the pasture and sometimes they didn't want to...it would get very entertaining until one day the dog had had enough at laughing, came streaking by me, moved the cattle towards the gate, then went back to the yard. : D@@ac1646

    Definitely there was tension this time. I was sitting here in Colorado USA, leaning forward, muscles tight. Urging the dogs on. I’m used to relaxing when watching your shows and going with the flow and rhythm of the dogs’ movement. Even though I knew everything would be fine, I was still tense. It was a brilliant show, and the explanations up front really made it work beautifully. I wouldn’t want that kind of stress all the time though... probably no more than you or the dogs.

    Props to YOU Sean. Storm and Echo do their manoeuvres under _your_ guidance; you have to do the thinking. It's fascinating that your collies know what to do in a simple setting and can do it by themselves with minimum guidance from you, but this was way more complex. You could tell they were concentrating so hard; anticipating the sheep's (individual sheep and the flock) movements and listening for your commands. Team work at it's finest. ✌✌

Thank you Sean for creating and sharing these stunning videos of your magnificent dogs, the poetry of their relationship with you, and the splendid backdrop of rugged rural Scotland! Your manner of presentation is that of a masterful teacher. We are learning so much about herding, different breeds of sheep, different breeds of dogs, the natural landscape, history and archeology of your area! As a field archeologist in my younger days I did my share of outdoor work in nasty weather, but will admit I am happy now, to watch you and your brilliant black and white "Most Valuable Players" from inside my warm house in Arkansas, US! I look forward to all of your videos with great anticipation. You go!

    It’s beautiful to see dogs loving what they have been bred to do. These two were practically freaking out because they were so excited to herd. Sled dogs leap at their traces because they cannot wait to pull. Retrievers are ecstatic when they get to find and bring back a kill. They all love their craft.

    Incredible. You're not only watching the dogs and directing them, but you're also focusing on how the sheep are herding, knowing when the bottlenecks are there, which the dogs don't, and you manage it all so safely! Echo is definitely getting more of the hang of listening to you and not being as 'gung-ho' to do his own thing. I see a bit of Storm still wanting to do her own thing at times, but she's also doing better, and they both definitely listen and obey your commands. Such a beautiful artistry to herding a bunch of sheep for such a distance, knowing that they'll be nervous, and fully taking that into a count. Simply beautiful.🤩🤩

    Oh my gosh, that WAS intense, I was on the edge of my seat worrying, great work! I had nothing to worry about because you are so great at your job as are Echo and Storm. Earlier in the video when the sheep were heading down that curve in the path was also intense and incredible. The farmer who hired you is very lucky.

    Amazing how they work closely not just with you but with each other - they can't talk to each other but they don't need to! What a trio you all are. If only the sheep could appreciate how much you do for them😄

    I'm new to these and now completely obsessed. I think my favourite part is at the very beginning where you see the two dogs completely tensed up, and then Sean says, "Away," and they're off like the proverbial bats out of hell. Amazing dogs and so intelligent. You can tell they love what they do.

    Wow. Those dogs are so intelligent & so willing to work! But watching this exercise showed me that in the end, they are a kind of tool to help you do your job. I wouldn’t have had the faintest idea what to tell the dogs to do to get the sheep where I wanted them to go, smart dogs or not! Job well done, Sean. 👏👏😄

    Love love your videos. My Scottish mate is from Glasgow and l can understand you more than him 😅. Was wondering l have seen the Turkish Kangal or Anatolian sheperd dog (huge dogs so.love them) herd sheep in the highlands of Turkey very different. But l think they are more to protect against wolves. Love your dogs ❤

      I was bitten by an Anatolian: even after being introduced to it. Beautiful dog, but stupid owners thought they could turn a wolf-killer into a house pet. It went straight for my throat, but luckily I managed to get an arm up in time; and owner was in the room so hauled it off.
