We were very successful in moving the sheep!!!
I was a bit concerned!
I can just imagine a big sheep disaster! Sheep lost going in all directions, no fencing , my hair standing up, and me screaming! Well you get the picture!!!
Thankfully that was not what happened!
I opened the gate to the new pasture, Drover and I went to the pen where the sheep were and I put him in a down stay away from the gate and to the off side… Then I opened the gate and the sheep followed me (the shepherdess) and my bucket of corn! (grin!) trick! across the field. I knew without looking Drover had gotten up and followed by the sheep’s reactions. They were starting to push past me where just before they had stopped coming with me! I turned and said nothing Drover dropped to a down stay and watched as the sheep went right into the new pasture! I never said a word to him during all this except the original down stay.
I was impressed! We are starting to come together as a team! Nice quiet work and easy as pie too!
Good job Drover!!!
