Anyone have suggestions or ideas on where to look or how to start working on border collies and adjusting them to chickens/ducks.
We just got ducks and they are used to dogs thankfully. But my border collie has no idea how to react haha. My fault for not having him trained to clock and counter clock. But now I'm at a loss on how to get into this training where he's a few years old. I don't have any trainers or other farms nearby who can help so it's all on me.
bonus photos for the two border collies, the baby German Shepard and a bit of my small bear.. who doesn't work he's just there. His job is to be a sentient rug at almost 6 years old. <3
(note the girl next to the chickens is not a work border collie.. she has no interest in it oddly enough. It's my boy that I'm looking to train proper and to settle with commands. He gets too excited when he's in the yard)
