And all poor smokey wanted to do was make the bad crows an obedient part of her “herd”. Smokey tried to herd everything, other dog's the neighbors, geese on the lake at a state park near us... that would have been cute except it was 14 degrees with a wind chill on top... smokey was way out in the lake and I said to my wife the old star trek line “It looks like she's dead jim”... but she survived and we had to carry her to the car for the trip home.... I really did not think dogs shivered that much.. but learned different on that day.

How to properly herd ducks and geese

What breed was your “herding” dog. My friend had a Sheltie who would slam the front door every time we tried to go out of the house. One day there were six of us all running in and out of my beach cottage and working in the yard and the poor dog was going crazy because she could not get the people herded into one area.
