Title: Dog breaking heifers this mornin Post by: Rooster79 on October 28, 2015, 12:40:06 pm The rains coming this weekend and I need to get some replacement heifers out of the muddy pens and drove to pasture. Decided to start dog breaking them this morning with a couple young gyps. Will give it another go this evening and tomorrow before driving them off Friday. These gyps impressed me today.

Are they Kelpies ?
There are a pair of dogs at Terrell Animal Shelter look just like your two. I'll bet somebody in Terrell is missing a couple good dogs. In case they don't find the owner and you know anybody interested here is the links to the Terrell facebook page with pics of the two. The black and tan dog ; http://preview.tinyurl.com/pj8h7ef The red one; http://tinyurl.com/nh9m4n7 They are still on hold to see if the owner comes forward, but they will be released soon. I think adoption is $80 Title: Re: Dog breaking heifers this mornin Post by: Briar on October 28, 2015, 01:47:26 pm They sure look like they're doing it right ! Are they Kelpies ?

I've never seen a kelpie before just had to look them up. These are curs
Title: Re: Dog breaking heifers this mornin Post by: Briar on October 28, 2015, 02:50:21 pm I don't know kelpies either, that's what somebody commented on the dogs picture. Hard to see your dogs across the pen they just looked real similar to those other two from the pics so I started assuming things haha.
Is this the first your 2 have been on cows ? They are taking to it quick by the looks of it. Title: Re: Dog breaking heifers this mornin Post by: Rooster79 on October 28, 2015, 04:25:25 pm 10-4 appreciate it. They have been on 5 or 6 gatherings with my older dogs but this is the first time they've been without guidance
Title: Re: Dog breaking heifers this mornin Post by: Walkerhuntfish on October 28, 2015, 07:32:51 pm Looks like they got it to me. I've never worked cows with dogs but my neighbor runs bunch of cow down near river. Suppose to go drive some to rye grass pastures later in winter. Can't wait. He uses curs and heelers. That last pic is great with them held up tight
