14 Month Old Border Collie Sheepdog Demonstration & Commands - Adam Henson

Adam Henson is excited to introduce you to our newest addition to the team, Gwen, a 14-month-old border collie. Join Adam as he demonstrates Gwen's impressive herding skills and shares some background on his house dogs and previous border collie sheepdog, Peg, who has recently retired.
Discover how Gwen, Adam's young border collie, was trained using a mouth whistle and how Adam is adapting to giving commands in an unfamiliar way. Witness Gwen's gentle nature and remarkable response to commands as she shows great promise as a shepherd's companion.
We're confident that Gwen will become a fan favorite and a beloved addition to our farm, especially as she continues to perfect her herding skills. Be sure to visit Cotswold Farm Park and see Gwen and the rest of our sheepdogs in action!

    If Peg is retired because of her eyesight and age, why is she not with house dogs??

    On our ranch we never separate our dogs. Everyone eats at the same time and sleeps under the same roof, people and dogs. We also never leave our senior dogs behind. While still able they help immensely in training the younger dogs. Retirement for our dogs just means riding around in the air conditioned truck watching the youngsters work 😂

    Don't be putting Peg away like that, just to work with better dogs. that was sad. get peg out and let her try at least.

    To the person whose dog passed away 10 years ago. GET a PUPPY! It’s the best medicine for a broken heart. My hubby lost his 14 year old friend. I got him a puppy the next day. Some said it was too soon but when I saw him kissing her and talking baby talk on day two, I knew I did the right thing. She’s almost six months now and they are inseparable.

    They must want to work for you. My (rescue) border collie, was actually "kicked off" a ranch, because she wouldnt work. She is the most laziest border Collie I have seen. She is such a city girl and loves to sleep in. However she gots the smarts, and sometimes, she is in the mood to run on a field and she lets out that dormant border collie part. Love them

    My grandpa trained his dogs to a whistle, but he didn’t have a gadget , he just whistled.

    All dogs are pack animals, and it's hard on them to be put away from you, and alone. At least the retired dog could come into the house now.

    Well-treated working dogs are always so happy. Shows how much clarity about how to please their owners actually matters to a dog.

    I'm picking up my 8week old B/C dog next week. Although he won't be working, he will be a regular visitor to the farm, where he was born, visiting his parents, and some of his siblings , to run the fields and socialise as much as he wants. He is from great stock, and his grand parents are still working dogs. ( Welsh hill farmers ) It's taken me 5yrs to get the courage to get another dog, after losing my best mate Max, a border terrier, who was with us for 18yrs. The grief is still bad .but at 73, I am hoping I won't have to go through it again. Thanks for sharing this vid.

    This is just incredible to watch. It makes me want to buy a herd of sheep so I can then get a border collie and watch her in action all day.

    Our herding dogs live in the house with us. Yes, it does make for more floor cleaning and we use slipcovered furniture, but I love their companionship indoors. ❤

    I had an Afghan hound that did that without no one taught her. She rounded up the sheep and move the group up and dawn. Very independent and smart dog.

    Peg is a beautiful baby! Our 16 year old corgi is having the same issues.
