Getting by...
What to do, when you have no sheep for your Border Collie to herd? Storm looooves his ducks! Now, if we had sheep I doubt he'd look twice at the ducks, but for now these guys are "just ducky"

Adorable! Did the herding come instinctively, or is he getting/ has be been taught how to herd?

I love the head down work posture. *L* too cute! So those ducks aren't the ones from the park that Storm brought home with him? LOL

Nope I've only seen a few ducks in town and at the park and we left them alone. These are the ones I bought and raised from day-olds and had swimming in my bathtub

Hello Gail P,
Please tell Storm that he does indeed look very menancing when he is giving the ducks his predator eye Cheers, Joanne

Storm says thank you very much!
Here's Rain looking very predatory while working geese at a client's. When it comes to "real" work they're both much more serious.

I think you may have the best job in the entire world.
I want to learn! Do you think I can my dogs can learn to herd office workers away from the watercooler and back to their desks? This may be lucrative in Ottawa!

Ha ha! You can try! You have big dogs, herding may not be at all necessary. Just get them guard the watercooler looking grouchy and that may be all it takes.

That is so what a border is made for, my friend had two and they took great joy in herding whatever came their way, so much instinct just bred into them, wonderful dogs
