11/14/13 -- Demonstration of Basic Sheepdog Whistle Commands. Dog training video. Shows how to give various whistle commands. Simple maneuvers utilizing dog's basic instincts are recommended.

This channel is for busy ranchers/farmers who may not have time and reasonable opportunity to attend in-person training. Primary focus is upon helping hard-working farmers and ranchers best utilize their herding dogs to accomplish particular stock management tasks. Emphasis on practical work.

Prerequisite dog skills include a lie-down, and flanks. Numerous books and other resources cover such topics. For safety reasons, handler should have familiarity with stock behavior.

Safety recommendations: When sheep/stock are nearby and/or crowding handler, flex your knees. Slightly bent legs, avoiding tensing-up and locking knees, will help prevent injury. Do not position yourself in a gateway/gap where stock may jostle handler, and perhaps cause injury. Stand off to side of a passageway, using fence or other structure to protect yourself from collision with stock.
