Then I visited Susanne Iles' blog at http://ringofbeara.blogspot.com/ from County Cork, Ireland. She has flocks of sheep roaming the farms all around her place (and sometimes in her garden), and the shepherds still use dogs to move the flocks. She has a wonderful site with photos, and she posted the following footage of shepherding from Wales. It's worth a look:

ReplyDeleteThats hilarious! Where do you live in Wisconsin? I may have asked you that before, my aunt and uncle lived in Rhinelander, my uncle worked as a conservation officer. It's so beautiful in Wisconsin!!!!
ReplyDeleteSue: Tied? I prefer to think of him as hanging on for dear life.
ReplyDeletePricilla: Hey Kevin. Ride 'er Cowboy! I want a picture of that chore day.
Wilmoth Farms: We are about twenty miles due east of Rhinelander, half way between Monico and Crandon. It is a little piece of Paradise and we feel lucky to be here.
Glad you all found these items to be as amusing as I did.
