"...there is no good flock without a good shepherd and no good shepherd without good dogs"
For the first time this unique DVD tells the story of the world's wisest dog - the Border Collie.
Capturing the work and skill that lies behind the "One Man and His Dog" world of sheepdog trialling, "The Year of the Working Sheepdog" is filmed amongst the wildlife of North Devon's breathtaking Atlantic Coast, and follows a team of working collies throughout the shepherd's year.
Also included:
The dangers of gathering on the cliffs during an Atlantic storm
Challenges of the lambing season
Birth and progress of new pups
Magic of a mid-summer dawn gather
And of course there's a sheepdog trial at a local agricultural show.
For those who love the countryside, farming life, or who marvel at the skills of the working sheepdog, this beautifully crafted DVD catches the year of the sheepdog and shepherd in a highly entertaining and educational way.
