Is there anything about teaching them commands or equipment to use because I’m totally new to the cattle dog scene
Without spending an hour typing I’ll make it short as I can, read up and look up as much as you can about obedience training, mainly tone training with a shock collar, a dog is a dog it doesn’t matter the breed or creed and what it’s used for and a handle on a dog is must for me, maybe not others but I like to have control over mine when their not in the box or leash, like bigo said, if it’s in them all you really have to do is put a good handle on them, feed them, and haul them to work, there’s a lot more folks out there that have a lot more experience than me but with the history behind a lot of today’s stock bred dogs a man doesn’t need to or should not have to put a lot of time into “training” a dog to work cattle, if the dogs don’t have the desire to do it naturally I would get rid of them and move on to something that does because there’s plenty out there that take right to it like a baby duck does to water...
