Our First English Shepherd
TMF English Shepherds in their new homes...
Alfie - Working Farm/ Active Family
4 men in their late 30s to late 40s overtook us on the trail. The had a nervous/anxious/add synonyms German Shepherd without a leash: they were trying to hold his collar without much luck. Alfie sat still and let them pass. We continued down the trail behind them when Alfie ran just off trail and began to coral /herd the kids next to me. In doing so, he went over a hive of ground yellow jackets and his face was covered in bees. I used a stick to beat the bees off his face while he showed dominance to the German Shepherd and protected his family. He never yelped or stopped. Just shook his head.this is why English Shepards are the only are the only breed I will ever own again.
Roger - Working Dairy Farm
Roger is so amazing. I def think my husband is super impressed. He’s also impressed at how laid back he is and how nothing phases him. He brings all the cows in every day twice a day! We love him.
