About the Course

Practical Shepherding Online course provides comprehensive guidance on selecting and training a sheepdog for farm work and sheepdog trials. Nij demonstrates many techniques and methods which have proven so successful in building strong foundations and trust with his dogs.

There are clear diagrams, guidance notes and tips to make it easy to follow and apply the methods. There is also an accompanying booklet providing further notes and clarification of the points contained in each chapter. It is ideal for both newcomers training their first dogs and experienced handlers who are experiencing problems.

The chapters follow Todd and Mist over 18 months from birth, their first time with sheep, and culminating in working on a sixty-acre park with a large flock. Whilst Mist lacks confidence early on, Todd is more feisty and challenging. The subject of gripping sheep, amongst many others, is discussed at length. There is something here for everyone.

You can either rent individual chapters for 3 months or the complete collection for 12 months.

The video Chapters included are: Choosing a Puppy – Obedience Training – Whistle Commands – Gripping and Confidence – The Round Pen – Training In An Open Field – Extending the Outrun and Flockwork.
