[QUOTE="wbvs58, post: 1719433, member: 16453"] We have a couple of young fella's here that run cattle on mostly lease country on the escarpment east of here, mostly rough tree country and they each have their team of kelpies. One of their fathers was telling me how Brett bought 160 wild steers and put them out on this 2,000 acre block heavily timbered and steep country and everyone one told him he would never see them again. When it came to getting them out Brett drove in the gate let the dogs out and drove up to the yards, about 1/2 an hour later the steers came out of the scrub with the dogs having them well under control and into the yards. A head count had 159 of them, the one missing was never seen again probably dead. Anything is possible with a good team of dogs but the key word is a "good team" and Kelpies of course. They tend to be area specific depending on the needs. Ken [/QUOTE]
