- We are into shearing season in Scotland and on the farm and the Hebridean sheep are in need of a hair cut.
Incredible border collie dog storm need to round them up so we can get them into the pen and shear them. But things are never that simple what kind of crazy plans do the sheep have in store and two big rams celebrating feel good have a little fight to demonstrate how life they feel

I met a dog who looked like Storm when I was 6, on holiday at a Northumbria beach. She watched our family from the cliff all afternoon, then when my big sister got into trouble in the water, she came off the cliff to tell my mum. Then I fell asleep and when I woke up my dad told me the dog had spent an hour preventing my football from blowing out to sea. Man's best friend indeed.
Storm said no way buddy your coming back for yer haircut. It’s too bad wool prices are worthless. All natural material is really better for people.
And three months later you’re at 248,000! Yowza! The word is out! Love your relationship with the dogs…simply amazing!
I was so sad when you said you couldn't sell the wool and wondered if someone would want it to use. Then you offered it and I was so happy that I started clapping at what a good person you are. Well done you!
as a spinner hearing that the wool is worthless makes me cringe
Also the wool is useful for pillow stuffing & my grandmother used it for quilt batting for super warm quilts.
I hope it can be sold.
Yes, it was sad to hear the wool was not usable. But Sean did offer it to anyone who wanted for free! There is a breeder in Michigan whose wool is highly valued. Saw it on The Incredible Dr. Pol who is a vet in mid-Michigan. 💖🇺🇸
I’m not a spinner but I have always loved and appreciated cotton, real wool, silk and velvet products since I was in high school. I’m 71 now and would love a Hebridean wool coat. Or any kind of real wool coat or sweater and I live in Texas lol! It really bothers me that it’s worth nothing. 🥺
Storm is amazing and I really love her!♥️
There are nich communities but he is right... The price of wool is about a fourth of what is was and from a business prospective I understand what he is saying... As pretty as the heberden are he would not make a profit...not even break even...not from a business point of view...and if he sis decide not leave it in... Wool is great for adding life back into the environment and soil... The fleece can be collected by birds for to make homes...
My back is locking up watching you. What a wonderful relationship you have with your dogs. Thanks for keeping the old traditions alive, and praying that one day soon civilization will realize natural is better than manmade and you can turn a profit. If someone took you up on your offer of the free wool, hopefully you can showcase what they made one day in the future.
I love wool products & I live in Florida! U r very strong, sharing is hard work & hard on ur back! Love all ur videos!
I think donating the wool to a spinner/weaver is FANTASTIC! Think of the tourists who will pay 💶💷💰for true Scottish artisan items. If you get connected to the right network it’s possible to get a % of the sales🤷♀️ who knows? I’d ❤ to see that happen for you guys! A little unexpected money stream is ALWAYS welcomed.
You can tell your dogs make your work a pleasure i do enjoy watching.
Great video! ❤. I love how Storm went and brought that sheep back on her own. Smart lass. 😊
👍thank you for posting. Your dogs are so smart. My border collie/lab is very smart and eager to please. We have a stare game I stare at her & say “wait” then after a few seconds I tell her “ok” & she runs to me from outside. She used to just rush the door before we had the stare game. She loves it & she seems very pleased that she taught me this stare game ha!
Rally like seeing the sheep and how their personalities are. Kind a know your dogs well.
So glad you thought to offer the Hebridean wool to art & craft workers 😊. Please let us know how it goes - maybe ask for photos of what is produced from your fleeces?
I’m exhausted just watching this. What a lot of work…
Learned a lot watching this clip today :) Cool to see that you had an audience (Storm) watching you while you did the clipping !
If wool prices are down...why in the world does wool yarn and wool fabric cost so much??!! If only I knew how to spin and weave, and if only I lived in Scotland. 😉
To bad the prices are so low. Alot of hard work for no profit.
Storm is psychic isn't she?
That wool looks amazing and if I were in Scotland, I'd definitely be getting in touch
100k folks are a lot happier knowing you & your dogs 🐕 ✨Congratulations✨‼️
Storm proved she’s made of the real Boarder Collie ❤️heart ❤️ completely understands the mission🏆fantastic job🐕🥰
Thank you for sharing.
(Hope some lucky person gets the fine wool)🍀🐑
Congrats on the 100,000 mark. Now let's run it up to a million.
Great job! My hubby has been a shearer since he was 15 so over years. He doesn't care to shear Shetlands or mini Southdowns. And you are right wool is basically worthless. Basically less than pennies per pound. Wool that has become felted is the worst😕 It is so funny that they don't recognize each other once shorn. They have to fight it out to reestablish the pecking order😁
Congrats on reaching 100k subs! Love your pups, your countryside and your videos! Thanks for sharing. That ‘ll do💚🐑🐏
Love your content. I learn something new every time I watch!
I feel ferya! Yes! Got 2 German Shepherds that overheat quickly in summer weather as their favorite play be chasing each other round-round-round the equipment sheds, ifn someone sent drone overhead they'd think very oddly of the worn dirt circles that meld into an Infinity symbol around our back buildings, maybe thinkn we're superstitious bout somethin. So I shave them to get rid of undercoat to help them out plus have 2 large kiddy pools fer their loungin. And ya, they're more wiggly than yer sheep, so I be worthless tired resto day. Could hear your breathin wilst filmin, so I definitely share your "pain". Good one this, Sean, even adding the horn clacks of the guys. The cattle here are tanglin too as well as the horrid moo's that echo when resto world about be quiet. Yet, twouldn't trade places, get lonely without all the ruckus. You too?
Hard to believe wool products ( hats, socks, vests and sweaters? Purchased all on recent visit to Ireland.
Thanks for your content .love working dogs.
Lol. Love the way Storm took matters into her own hands. Everyone looks lighter!
All I can say without rambling on how amazing your videos, well done! All the best for your endeavors to provide Nature's best clothing: wool! Well done! Well done!!❤❤❤❤
Happy to help you succeed, Sean, if only by liking, subscribing and sharing; can't do Patreon yet as times are a little rough right now, but definitely in the future, God willing. Love you guys!🐕 Anyway, thank you, from Chicago, Illinois, USA!!!
Much appreciated!
Storm is amazing to watch. Sandi Brock in Canada who is on YT had the same problem with what to do with the wool and she found a place to take raw wool and produce a cleaned product for sell on the internet in her online shop. Maybe that would be an option for you ? Or someone could start a small company to do that ? That black wool is beautiful. :)
I liked very much the idea of putting the camera on the back of the dog, I hope that it will not bother him, and I also wish to place it during the race and run at full speed. How much I enjoy seeing your cute dogs running at full speed. I always re-watch them over and over again.💓😍🐾
Congrats on 100K, Sean. You deserve it!. We have a small market for fiber from spinners here in New Hampshire, USA. We Sell our fiber either by the fleece or by the pound but, like you, don't see a lot of monetary value from it. One thing we have done is to send our fleeces to a Mill in Nova Scotia and have blankets made. We then sell the blankets, and they seem very popular. Off the top of my head I want to say MacAuslan Mills is the place we use. Maybe you have Mill local that could spin up blankets our other items for you. Might be worth looking into.
It's my dream to have a wool top! I don't even have the barest idea on where to get it 😢
I watch your channel so I can watch the dogs work. Thanks so very much for sharing.
Looks like some nice weather. Hurray on 100k, it will keep growing. Rather shocked at wool prices being so low. I can’t stand synthetic fibres. They take forever to break down and bad for the environment. I dye my own wool and the fibre community is big here. For people who say they ate allergic to wool, I weave and knit with cotton, bamboo and tencel, sew with linen and cottons. I think this will shift some with a lot of people making the move away from synthetic fibres.
I dislike all the synthetic fibres, (looks around), duvet cover 100% cotton, duvet wool, carpet wool, clothes 100% cotton, socks bamboo... warm top, shit, 100% polyester fleece!
I love watching your videos! They’re the perfect length and I learn so much. You’re very pleasant to listen to and after watching you work, my respect deepened for all you do. And of course, I love watching the dogs! I have a BC and she’s brilliant despite her mediocre training. It’s a joy watching your pups work and seeing a BC’s full potential.
Storm is so clever. I often wonder if she really needs you telling her what to do. Congratulations for all your subscribers x
Thank you! 😊
Haha yeah, when Storm does nothing without a command it's because she understands he likes to think he's the boss LOL
I love watching your videos. I grew up with collies and now live in the city so we dont have the space for a dog needing lots of space to run. I am so impressed with your knowledge of dogs and sheep.
I love watching the dogs work. They are so patient but also ready for that special word to run
You always impresse me, giveing the wool away shows me that you're not so monetary and that generious act goes right to my heart what a good person you are and I wish more young people in America followed that example you've won me over honey Right on I'm really enjoying learning from you!, ✌️
Congratulations on the 100k! There is a charity in Buckie called Moray Reach Out and the volunteers there are taught to card and hand spin fleece to produce yarn which is then sold to help the work of the charity in the community. They may be able to use your fleeces if you haven't found a home for them yet.
Awesome! Thank you!
Congratulations on reaching 100k! Seems sad that wool has lost so much value. There is nothing better and it has such a rich history. Your vids are awesome, always look forward to them. Take care.
I totally agree!
What a shame that wool has low market value now. But I'm not surprised because you're right, synthetics have taken over and are cheap. Personally, I'd like more natural fibers and especially wool in winter but almost impossible to find in the states. I do make sure I get Merino wool socks which I think are raised out West but are expensive. So I hunt for vintage sweaters (jumpers?) :)
Вы ВСЕ всместе Великие Труженники !Храни Господь Ваш Мир!❤
I Love and admire the Border Collies! They Love to work! I so enjoy your channel! How I wish I was younger- I'd get a Border Collie in a heartbeat! I had no idea that the price of wool was so worthless! Oh my!
What a dog!
Storm is so fascinating and clever.
Also I admire your constant work with them. This is great.
Watching from Canada. I'm an old Grandma and a life long fibre artist. What I wouldn't give to pick up all that beautiful wool!!
WOW ❤ such amazing dogs and beautiful sheep.
New here and commenting for the algorithm 🎉😊
I learn something new with every video.
Congratulations on the 100k! You deserve it!
Your dog must be so dear to you. What an incredible working relationship.
"A fight over who has the worst haircut" 😂🤣 Looking at what you're doing from out of Holland here, LOVE the dogs and your cooperation with them. Congrats on the 100k,, hope you and Stacey are doing well.
🎶🎶 “ Baaaa Baaaaa black sheep, have you any wool? Yes Sir, yes Sir….three bags full…..” 🎶🎶🎶
Love your videos. So glad I found your channel.
Congrats on 100k! Saw you got another push from OzzieMan, and people in the comments making sure your channel name was there!
Your flock is surely growing!
Yep, was kind of surprised that wasn't in the title or somewhere - is that normal for shorts?
Congratulations. 100k. Blessings to you.
👍👍👍A little over a month later, & as I've just discovered your channel & am catching up on videos, I noticed your now at 166K subscribers. Very well done indeed!
I favor wool over any clothing material. But here in AU, it is so expensive.. Btw, on Etsy, you have a lot of people using natural material. Maybe see if you can sell your wool on it. People do that with alpaca & sheep. And they do get a bit of money. New sub :)
Your sheepdog are amazing. I love them.
Congrats! And great job shearing. Storm reminds me a lot of her mom in terms of her high intelligence and intuition about the sheep. Do you agree? If not, how are they different?
I enjoy seeing your cute sheep and they do look a lot more comfortable after shearing. A lot different from the Merinos we have here in Australia.
well done man and dogs and sheeps
wow strength is needed fro this job for sure !! Well done and thank you for sharing ! Storm!
Nice! I wish I lived closer. I’d love to have the fleeces. Cheers!
Sean you are one hard worker. Shearing a sheep the way you did is hard on the back!
I love the dogs help with the video production.
Man, the middle man is cleaning up then, because woolen cloth is astronomical. And yarn isn't much cheaper.
So interesting. Thank you for sharing ❤❤
Congratulations on your 100k! 🎉🥳 how wonderful! I remember some of your beginnings, and doesn’t seem that long ago. It’s truly sad wool doesn’t get a better price for you, such a great textile. I’m sure there must be a spinet in Scotland that would love to have it. Thoroughly enjoying your videos Sean. Can’t decide which fascinates me more, the sheep or the way your dogs are able to work.
Hope you share your RUclips award when it comes! 👍🏻🤞🏻🥳
That is quite a workout for the shearer! I thought the ram on the right had the better haircut BTW. "That'll do" was used by my Scottish father to us kids the exact same way you do with the dogs. "whatever you're doing, stop it" .🙂🙂
Haha a good man then
2 months later and already more than 200 thousand subscribers! Good for you. On the topic of not much market for wool: I imagine that now that you have this many subscribers, you might have some customers for your wool! Something to think about. Some of us out in the world prefer to wear and have in the home only natural fibers. And hand raised sheep living a good life is something worth supporting, too.
Come on you farmers wives there must be some industry for wool that you can come up with. Love your you tube...
I’m only a newbie to your platform and I’m looking through and finding gems in your older videos. The Robert Burns Toasting the Haggis - what can I say. Loved the enthusiasm. You made me proud to be a quarter Scot although I’m with Stacey regarding actually eating the haggis. 🇦🇺🦄
🎉HAPPY 100,000 Sean!🎊
That'll do ... 😳 ... wait, what do I DO? Ugh, gotta Google shepard commands again, WHEN will I remember?
What a smart (well trained) dog😉
I would absolutely love to make a jumper out of that wool!
Wonderful video, love the dogs. Wool is so much better than synthetics. Bless you and your family.
Sad about the wool. Love your Border collies
beautiful
Nice video
Congrats on 100K wooo hooo!
Congratulations on 100k! Love your channel and dogs!
You are so kind
Congrats on the 100K subs! I appreciate all the content you create and share with us. You are a hard working guy! Aloha from Hawaii ....
Thanks so much!!
_STORM_ always takes my ❤ by Storm ...*as do SheepWoman&Man* congrats 2 100k 🍻
Mate your BCs are the best.
Congratulations on the subs.
Thanks!
The rams are thinking Jeez Sean we look like needs! 😂
Congratulations on hitting and passing the 100K subscribers mark. Never doubted you would reach that goal. Enjoy your rewards. ❤
Your dogs are fabulous! Love your videos
Thank you so much!
Congratulations on reaching 100K subscribers 🎉
Well done Sean. Nice to see the wife help with the filming.
Amazing Storm!
Amazing!!
Well done Storm! And well done Sean on 100k!
Thank you!
Love these dogs!
Congratulations on 100k! Great to see the channel growing and all the creatures of the land looking well.👍🏻
What’s not to love with Sean, Stacy, the wonder dogs, and the sheep? Makes my day.🇦🇺
I’ve watched several sheep shearing sites and they all say the belly wool is unusable. Don’t know why! Congrats on the 100,000 subs🎉🎉! Wahoooo! You deserve it!💖🤩🥳
Super cool! I guess that was a good workout. 🏋️♀️ no need to go to the gym.
Just brilliant!
Congratulations!!!
It breaks my heart that man made fibers, literally plastic, has ruined pure sheep’s wool, like it did cotton some 60+ years ago. Yet, those two natural fibers made into clothing cost the consumer so much more. Make this ridiculous nonsense stop!
Love your videos, you and your wife, and the sweet dogs!
Excellent video !
Yay Storm!
