Things To Consider

Today, some Herding breeds, such as the German Shepherd Dog, are commonly trained for police and protection work. Others, such as the Border Collie, excel at competitive performance events. Because of their outstanding loyalty and intelligence, Herding dogs are prized as house dogs, watchdogs and companions.Herding dogs specialize in rounding up livestock, finding strays and moving animals from one grazing area to another. They are designed to tirelessly stalk and chase.
