There are a lot of people that say this about our belgians but they don't realize is that like many other breeds in the herding group they require additional work and thrive typically in an environment where their brain is being used this does not mean laying on the couch all the time with you and the kids or playing fetch this means doing something and this is no offense to those of you out there that have a either mix breed that likes that drive or a line that has not been bred towards having the working Drive meant for the breed. In general some breeds require more work we should never judge a corgi for nipping and barking when it's a job is to nip and bark at livestock to try and move it we should not judge a beagle for vocalizing when that was its original intent the same with Coonhounds we can't fault them for doing what they were meant to do physically we can only take measures to train our dogs so that those desires don't get out of hand if you get herding dog and don't want it to herd then you are going to have to do some training and also possibly make some adjustments in your life to take them into consideration

How about if you don't know them don't approach them dogs do realize that they have limitations on a leash and some of them get very defensive about it and it makes them more likely to react in a negative manner

there are different types of herding what does your dog do?

know the tracking laws for our state in some counties the rules differ in general you may track s**t and antlers without issue blood track on an actively injured animal (deer) requires dogs are kept on leash you will likely be required to provide evidence of injury to a game warden. dogs are not allowed to hunt deer or harass them in the state of texas. they should be tracking wildlife that is actively in the process of being unalive.

S**t track can be used to determine where to set up deer blinds
antler track is to find shed antlers.

Is your dog a problem around livestock and Wildlife? Give us a call before you have a dog harm someone else's animal we do what is called trash breaking to reduce risk to other animals when they come in contact with your high drive dog to reduce risk further the best method is to keep your dog on your property fully fenced in and maintain your fences when you are off your property as is legally required please keep your dog on leash do not allow your dog to free roam off your property as they may be good with your livestock and your pets but this does not mean they will be good with others.

Let's talk about a healthy dog smile

Give your dog a bone large enough they cannot choke on it and monitor interaction with chewing it so that it does not get whittled down to a point that is dangerous a bone will help clean the teeth in my experience faster than any toy

Build your dog up and they won't hesitate to follow you into weird situations

Have you seen the ongoing trend of nail so short they appear to not exist? Have you been ashamed for your nails being visible on your dog? Is you're working dog slipping on the dirt?
If your nails are too long it can affect your dog's structure which can impact the overall health that said if the nails are too short which has become a trend over the years you can cause the dog to lose the ability to grip and gain traction

Does your high energy breed know when to settle down? Give us a call we are happy to help

The importance of knowing your drives and intents.
It's important to know what drives a dog to do what it's doing and what the intentions are many people put their animals in dangerous situations not realizing all the body language the animals are giving each other this dog may appear friendly in some of these pictures to some of you but she would gladly go after this pig if given the chance naturally the two are not allowed to interact on the same side of the fence for their safety that is not a wild hog that is one of my registered Berkshires.

I spoke yesterday about how some dogs were more comfortable outside of the Ring than in it one such dog would be my completely work line import Deabei Roxy aka Skoll
She will take working goats, water retrieval and baying pigs over the show ring any day it is nothing against the show ring she just prefers more activity and gets easily bored not all dogs are cut out for the same type of work and part of the responsibility of the owner is to know and understand their dogs individual personality some dogs aren't made for work and some dogs aren't made for show regardless of conformation.

One of my show/work line Imports not as driven as my others but he is moving goats I think he will excel better at conformation and obedience so that's what I'll be moving him towards sometimes you have to look at the animals personality to see if they enjoy their work and take that into account before you pursue training I may test him again later to see but right now he is but right now he is not as motivated as some of my other dogs.

Teach your dog to be confident with any barrier or obstruction! climb over or go under to get the job done.

It's always good to see a dog really come out of their shell this is Kit Kat she is one of our clients right now that is part of our board and train program she was purchased from someone up north and due to her lack of confidence and at the time of arrival weight issue she was unable to perform as a working dog should she was also very food aggressive and afraid of leashes and recall I am proud to say that we have worked through this and will continue to do so to reinforce this positive attitude she is going up north to be a bay dog for competitions who says old dogs can't learn new tricks? This dog has never worked cattle, goats, pigs or C***s but now she is baying client does not want a catch dog or one that is aggressive with livestock so we will be breaking her on baying stock so she can focus on her Target species
