Favorite Video Friday – Coolest Sheep Herding Video Ever
I came across this video on my friend Johann The Dog’s Facebook page and could barely wait to share it with all of you. In fact, I almost didn’t wait. It’s that cool.
Of course, I may be a bit biased in this respect since Jasper has herded sheep before and I am hoping to get him more involved again soon.
This video was shot with a GoPro (a camera I very much want) and gives you a unique view of sheep herding from both the dog and the sheep’s point of view. In my opinion, it’s the best sheep herding video I have ever seen (the choice of music is awesome too). I hope you like it as much as I did.
Just two words of warning: 1) it’s a rather long video, so watch as much or as little as you want, and 2) the video is best watched in big screen, but in the scenes where the dog is wearing the camera it is very disorienting because of the way the camera moves with the dog.








Disorienting perhaps, but very cool. I love the super high-speed footage near the end. It’s really amazing to see this dog’s intensity. Even with all that going on around him – the cars on the highway for instance – he never once became distracted from his job. That’s insanely impressive.
Thanks for sharing!

(P.S. Sadness, GLP! What is up today?)
Wow! Great video!
That WAS a Fantastic Video!!!
How great….thank you! Yesterday I was marveling over the innate herding instincts as I watched my Bearded Collie herding other dogs!
So glad you liked it. Isn’t it fun to watch your dog do whet they were meant to do?
