I am a herding girl myself, and how could you resist this face?

We have had herding dogs for many years. The Australian Cattle Dogs are the best for herding cattle & ours loves to go hunting. They need to be used for what they are bred up for though because they are high energy. My husband takes Baxter to town for short trips & always has to stop & buy him a cookie. When they stop to do the banking he gets a doggie treat there also. I had an Australian Shepherd for over 14 years & loved the heck out of him. He was so smart & would retrive tennis balls, roll a barrel with his front paws. He was loyal to the end. It was hard on me when he passed away. I love to watch the herding dogs at the state fair. They have herding classes with sheep & cattle. The owners use voice commands & some use a whistle. Those dogs are so hyped up & ready to do their jobs.
