He was invaluable at the weekend when we had to move sheep about. One of my bitches tries to help but gets a bit excited. But she will run from side to side behind them, following movements of my arms - and she's 8. There have been times when we wouldn't have got the cows into the barn without them.

Nice to hear from a R.Ridgeback owner on the forums. At times I have the illusion that there are few owners on the forum.

Did you have an issue with jumping up at people when your dogs were puppies? It's probably the only trait I am having an issue with. PM me as to not take the topic off course! Thanks.
