Learning to herd sheep 'Tending Style' with Caden
Posted on Tuesday, August 18, 2009 by Canine Dog Training USA
In Germany, the dogs that competed for their HGH title also had to demonstrate their obedience and protection, doing Schutzhund as well. They were truly an all 'round dog. I can see in Caden's drive to work and high energy some glimpses of what the true GSD of earlier German days must have been like - a very intelligent and imposing dog. You can read a lot more about this on Ellen Nickelsberg's website about GSD Herding. She bred Caden's dam, Hera. Caden's grandsire Nicky was bred by Manfred Heyne who was one of the top herding trainers and competitors in Germany in his day. I understand he is now in his 80s. Sometimes I wish I could tell him how much I love my boy, and thank him!
