[QUOTE="angie1, post: 648686, member: 3886"] As much as I enjoy watching [u][i]trained[/i][/u] cattle dogs work cattle, it has been my personal experience that a dog (any dog) in the pasture will create more problems than they solve. I have adult cows that, when a dog is in the pasture, refuse to do anything other than monitor or chase the dog. They cannot attend to where I am directing them. I have an Aussie. She is never allowed in the pasture when the cows have new calves, or if I am worming them (I walk up to them and pour it on) or if I am brushing them. I will let her in to work with them if I am moving them from one pasture to another and I have calves that will not cross old fence lines ~ but that is just because I enjoy watching her. [/QUOTE]
