Working sheepdog Carew faces her longest outrun - 500 metres!

sheepdog-train...
At The Working Sheepdog Website we're pleased to see a lot of interest in our blog, particularly on the days when we take Kay and Carew to gather sheep at Dean Farm.
We wanted to see whether Carew could do the full outrun across two fields to gather the sheep so Gill and I decided to record it to give our readers a better idea of what's happening.
This is just a practice gather really. Carew takes the sheep into the sorting pens, and back out again. You'll see Carew do the full gather of more than fifty sheep.
You'll also see her at work in the sorting pens. One of the sheep briefly thinks about challenging her, but quickly changes her mind. The sheep have learned to respect Carew and in this video you'll see why.
The outrun's very nearly five hundred metres. That's a long way for a dog of Carew's limited experience but she genuinely did this gather unaided - first time.

Carew needs a soft couch and put her feet up. She is amazing
