Aye,cant beat a good dog or 2 about. Kick my dog, kick me.It amazes me people dream of keeping sheep without dogs. They are more important to me than most people, mine would die for me and are my best mates! Had to gather some ewes for shearing once for some people, the idiots couldn’t get them in with 2 quads. Dogs got them in on first attempt, one of mine likes people and went over to the bloke to say hello and he kicked the dog away. Well that was it I saw red, let’s just say the bloke had a bad noise after and the sheep where unshorn!
