[QUOTE="cross_7, post: 1088790, member: 8382"] I copied this from another site and I'm sure he wouldn't mind. He has said things that I didn't grasp at first then as I began to understand it was like a light come on in a dark room A few years ago I had been using a dog to move cattle and I was having trouble with getting the job done and the dog taking commands I had asked a question and I'm paraphrasing what Tony said and I may be off a little but he said Let the dog handle the job. Let the dog learn from his mistakes and learn to handle cattle on his own without you hollering "away to me" "come bye" "down" and so on Who would want a dog that couldn't handle cattle without being told how to ? The light came on at that point I'd take the dog to the cattle and tell him to "bring'em" and I'd head to where I wanted them. It was up to him to get them there, I never said a word. It turned out he did a better job without me giving him orders on how to do it. [/QUOTE]
