Herding Dogs?

This Old English Sheepdog won the the herding group at the Westminster Dog Show, beating out the Barbie Collies as "best hair dresser's dog" pretending to be a working breed.

  1. I was surprised to find out that Canaan Dogs are considered herding dogs.

    On the Canaan Dog Club of America website, only one dog listed has a Herding "Instinct" Test title. So much for them being a herding breed.

  2. Dear Patrick,

    Good to know that a faux sheepdog that can't see his sheep is in some respect better than faux sheepdogs that might see them but likely won't care.

  3. In the second photo they look like a long line of stuffed toys on leashes.
