My English Shepherd is everything you described. He watches over my small flock and puts them up in their run if asked. He has an incredible sense of what is balanced behavior and what is not. He watches my every move, but retreats and lays down when I don't need him to be in my space. He is guardian of our small acerage, very territorial about things or animals that shouldn't be here. The breed has an incredible urge to please his master, and guard what is his masters property, animal or family. He is never hyper, but has stamina for anything asked of him. He rides out with me on horseback, or when i go for a walk or hike in the woods. He never takes off, despite the fact he is still intact.
I can't say enough about this breed, especially if you have acreage and animals to look after, and a family to need watching over.
Good Luck!
