Sheepdog Demonstrations

There’s something special about working with a good dog. It’s not just the skill, speed, or instinct — it’s the trust. The quiet understanding built over time, out on the hill, where nothing is staged and the stakes are real.

For us, sheepdogs are at the heart of the farm. We have a team of 11 dogs, five of whom make up the core working crew. The rest are either training, learning the ropes, or enjoying retirement. Each one is part of our family, and each one has its own place and purpose here. Most people have no idea just how much these dogs are capable of — until they see it for themselves. Watching them gather sheep, respond to the different whistles, or lie calmly with one eye on the flock... it’s impressive, even for us, and we see it every day.

Our demonstrations aren’t a show — they’re a window into the real work we do with our dogs, the training involved, and the relationship it takes to get there.

What to expect

 Our sheepdog demonstrations last around an hour and are all about the dogs. You’ll meet members of our working team and see them in action, from young dogs just starting out to fully trained dogs working the sheep.


We’ll talk you through the training process, explain the commands, and show how each dog develops its own working style based on natural instinct, their character, and time spent together.


You’ll also get a chance to meet the dogs up close — stroke them, ask questions, and take photos. Most people leave with a bit of dog hair on their jumper, a smile, and a few new four-legged friends.


We welcome individuals, families, and groups (up to 50 people), and we’re open 7 days a week. Booking is simple — just get in touch to arrange a time that suits.

Our dogs

  

From wise old dogs to cheeky young pups, our dogs are all characters in their own right. Below you’ll find photos and a little introduction to each one — so when you meet them in person, you’ll already know who’s who.
