Sheepdog trial
2010.08.08
The shepherd and the dog are gathering the herd of sheep along a fence.
|
The shepherd and the dog are trying to make the herd of sheep walk into the livestock trailer.
|
Two rebellious sheep decide to run away from the livestock trailer.
|
The dog is out of breath and exhausted because of running after the rebellious sheep. The two rebellious sheep think it's time to join the herd.
|
Finally the entire herd walks into the livestock trailer.

A Sheepdog trial (also herding test or simply dog trial) is a competitive dog sport in which herding dog breeds move sheep around a field, fences, gates, or enclosures as directed by their handlers. Such events are particularly associated with hill farming areas, where sheep range widely on largely unfenced land. These trials are popular in the United Kingdom, Ireland, South Africa, Chile, Canada, the USA, Australia, New Zealand and other farming nations.
Some venues allow only dogs of known herding breeds to compete; others allow any dog that has been trained to work stock.
