Sheep herded in less than a minute: the incredible efficiency of the sheepdog
At the command of the owner, he sprints and brings the flock to the fold, then returns composed to his positionJudging by the images we are in the English countryside, humid, indeed, muddy and gloomy.
The video shows us a herd dog at work. At a command from the shepherd, the four-legged (a kind of border collie, but not very pure, to see the color and the morphology) takes off like a rocket and in just over a minute gathers the flock of sheep and leads them into the enclosure.
These dogs are fantastic human assistants for the ability to perform the task keeping the animal's stress to a minimum.
If he is faced with an unruly specimen, this dog is capable of pinching it with his teeth, causing a slight pain but no injury.
In Italy, in fact, these dogs are called "touchers".
The owner, who posted the video, is enthusiastic about his auxiliary and has renamed him "employee of the month".
