    Starting the pup on sheep (Part 1)

    Overview: The very first training for the pup on sheep. How to teach the pup to move away from us around the sheep, in either direction, and to remain on the far side of the sheep. (And no, I don’t use a garden rake or a round yard).

    This is sometimes referred to as “counter-balance”. This is also a stage where we continue to evaluate the pup’s instincts.
