[QUOTE="Dusty Britches, post: 472781, member: 1900"] I agree with Brute. I don't know how old your dogs are, but they have to have a handle on them before you work them on cattle or sheep or anything. I disagree with a shock collar on the border collie. They are way to sensitive for that. It may work on the Cat, though. Make sure your dogs aren't getting distracted and will consistently "down" every time you call it. Also, try the collie on a long lead around horses. When she goes after them, jerk the heck out of it and yell, NO! Here! She is very smart and it won't take long for her to figure out horses are not the thing to chase. I also [b]TOTALLY DISAGREE with BB guns and rat shot[/b]. Any idiot who suggested that is not worth listening to. They don't have a clue as to how to train cow dogs. [u]Run, don't walk, to the nearest exit [/u]and never listen to that person on anything. Read some books and call a professional trainer. Training cow dogs is alot easier than training hunting dogs, in my opinion. [/QUOTE]
