"Echo"that - another great example of wonderful teamwork in diverse beautiful & rugged terrain. How did those sheep run amuck? Good young boy Echo! Thanks for all you share Sean + Stacey & border collies extraordinaire! In awe, Lynn C from Pacific NW Washington state, United States

US citizen here with an elderly half border collie rescue dog. In watching your sharp and beautiful dogs, I am seeing why she was such a quick learner as a pup; is such a close companion to our family; is sensitive to our words; and has never tried to run away or wander except for one time we were away and there was a storm…. Then she was looking for us I’m sure! Your homeland is a stunning reflection of the majesty of our Creator God. I have roots in a village there, but now at my age will likely never see it in person. However, I can enjoy it a bit vicariously thru your well-done! Appreciate your hard work as a younger man !

Gives a new appreciation to how hard your work can be.

What a lot of rugged terrain for shepherd and sheepdog! Why did this group of sheep get so far out from the rest of their herd? Naughty sheep! That immensely talented border collie is very good at his job and happy to do it! A long walk for a shepherd is often all in a days’ work. And the sheepdog puts in a lot of miles too. Thx for sharing a tougher day then some days, Sean. Echo seemed to enjoy the work, being with you and being a beautiful dog! Blessings to you, Stacey and all the furry babies! ❤❤❤

I can now see why so many of my family settled in the hills of West Virginia. It reminded them of the rolling terrain of Scotland and home.

This was a complex operation and you and Echo made it look easy! What an incredible team! He hears you from such a long distance, and you aren’t shouting. He has great hearing! Our BC became deaf at around 8 years. We all learned a bit of sign language. Your weather is just like mine here in western Washington U.S. having an outside job makes it tolerable! Thank you are your videos. I love your pups so much.

Thank you Sean and Echo. A truly delightful experience watching this sheep herd being moved. Beautiful scenery. Wild country up there. I was charmed. 🇨🇦

I find it amazing how many people from abroad watch your channel and especially from USA....

Echo is amazing! He definitely had his exercise for the day 🥰

holy moly that looked very difficult, BRAVO ECHO! And you too Sean, thank you for this :) Lovely views

I also enjoy watching the real time commands and responses and the amount of patience when dog gets it “kind of correct”. Makes me think it’s not about perfect behavior, but rather a pattern of understanding. 🐕❤️

Thank you Sean for another stunning video sampling your beautiful country and the insanely talented Echo. What a gift to be able to work outside doing what you love (and are very good at!) with a canine companion (or two or three), doing what they were bred and so very well-trained to do. The energy and enthusiasm of your working dogs is contagious--no wonder all of us in distant lands look forward to every new video showcasing their joyful lives! You often ask what would we like to see in videos. Honestly, for me it doesn't matter what aspect of your farm activities you show because they are all soothing for townies like me. What I love most about your presentation is that you often explain WHY you do something, whether it is keeping those opportunistic rams away from the vulnerable ewes or moving lambs onto the salad bar field of turnips and kale, which by the way looked good enough for human consumption! I do appreciate learning the reasons farmers do things because we non-agricultural folks could certainly learn a lot from you. (Special kudos for the video on roaming, and how important it is to leave gates as you found them). Your lessons in working dog vs pet illustrate why Kate so exceptional since she is both, but that concept might have gone right past me if you hadn't explained it so clearly. Your narration is very thoughtful and well-spoken. Combined with the great camera work, every video is a joy to watch again and again.

Thank you for allowing me to experience some of your life in a beautiful country with you amazing dogs. These are my new favorite calming videos in a world that is so full of chaos.

This was super! Whoa working in the mud 😂. Echo does just a great job and look at how much fun he has knowing he’s a great dog! 😊

This is incredible to watch! What a beautiful partnership.

Ty for sharing the beauty of the land!!

Amazing! The speeds in which Echo maneuvers along the terrain, makes it appear effortless...although we see the tongue flopping, we never see a struggle...most humans on the other hand wouldn't be able to speak after running up & down hills like that, lol...Echo's athleticism is attributed to your incredible knowledge of exactly what these dogs need 💕 Great job to both of you!

❤‍🩹❤❤Love those border collies!!!

From California, USA. I love the breed! My most dog was Bell Star, she managed Bighorn cows, Texas here in California. Wow what a good girl she was had a good retirement… Now I have an English shepherd which is a descendent of the breed and I love them. Enjoy your videos immensely.

Good boy Echo! Thank you Sean, for all the panoramic views of the mountains and countryside, absolutely stunning. I was sitting back in my chair watching you pan, and it relaxed me so much! But when you guys were having to walk next to that cliff and the other side was a drop.... had me nervous! I knew you'd said it was a safe path to take them on though!🤩🤩

Complicated and highly physical herding job today. Great job Echo and Sean. I loved looking at the beautiful landscape. ❤

Beautiful countryside my kind of place. Echo Super Dog, Keep it coming Echo Love your style.

Echo is a good laddie. Bonny too.

What a great team! Echo seems to read your mind! ❤🐾

Thanks Sean for sharing your life with us. Oh, how I love handsome Echo! He IS a good boy! I was thinking that you two had a long walk back to the bike, and glad that you explained a shortcut! 💚💚💚🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Utterly fascinating seeing that team in action.

It is clear that herding sheep in such terrain would be nigh impossible without the able, masterful assistance of your dogs.

Herding the red and blues like clockwork. 🫡

We loves this video bc it shows off the outstanding work between Sean and Echo, as well as Echo's very talented and well trained herding abilities. Also, it was a gorgeous view of your lovely Scottish countryside- plus showing how much your personal daily work incorporates some extremely rugged territory for you and the dogs to cover!😮 Thank you for an excellent video, with a big Good Boiii to Echo and Sean!😊

Beautiful scenery Sean and Echo did a great job thanks for sharing 👍❤️

WOW beautiful scenery❤ I have to hand it to you and the dogs Sean, you all are really tough. When I’m having a bad day at work and am tired I just remember how hard you guys work and I it encourages me to push harder. I usually get your videos on Sundays and they can put me in the proper frame of mind for the week to come. Our lives are better because you share your’s with us.

That is some rough terrain to work with there, but Echo is up for the job.❤

I adore, the quality of these dogs. I’m descended from the folks,who endeared the Leistershire, sheep in angland, in the 15+1600’s. Then ran to New angland. I was raised a cat/bwoi, yet vibe with dogs.

Just love it! Thanks for clip! Dogs are really remarkable!

Thx Linda. I can only go by what I was told not being a “sheep woman.” Your explanation makes sense.

Plus the sheep are so confused about where they should go. Beautiful videos. ❤

Another excellent video, Sean. Thanks for sharing. Echo is something to behold.

that was quite a hike for both of you!

Beautiful!! You both are Amazing!! ❤ It sometimes looks like the sheep wait or look to Echo for which way they are to go.

Just want to clarify one thing for US viewers. In the intro there is a picture of a pen of sheep with a red ribbon. In Europe, red is first place, blue is second.

It's a good thing both you & Echo are fit, that was quite the uphill walk! So very beautiful at the top though. Echo kept looking back at you on the little path when you said "Lie down," as if to say, "In all this mud? You're joking, surely!"

Love watching you work with your dogs-Echo this time. You got a real workout too!!! I enjoy the countryside as well. Hello from Wisconsin USA!!!

Beautiful scenery and very hard work by Sean and Echo

Nice video. I saw Echo trying to drink water from mud puddles because he was so thirsty. You may want to consider carrying a small pack with fresh water and a collapsible bowl for him.

Echo and Storm are very exceptional dogs, Sean. They love you to pieces, too, which motivates them to work hard to please you ! Those 2 dogs are worth 10 ordinary herding dogs !!

Another winner. I was impressed that Echo knows the context of the commands. "Lie down" does not mean literally lie in the mud.

What an awesome work out for the both of you! Great job!!

Almost missed this- great video of Echo working so hard and you’re lovely relationship with each other. Get home safely Sean ❣️✌🏼

Clever clever Echo!! Beautiful scenery !! ❤️🦘

Another fine job done, in the draughty winter on an exposed ridge. One dog n his master Thx again 😊

Never get tired of watching the amazing dogs working, and they love it 😊

Aw, I can kinda relate to Echo, eager to round up the sheep to get them back to their class, I mean, paddock. 😂 I'd trade places any day, the countryside is stunning. 😍 Well done, Echo, that'll do!
