Jeanne Joy Posted December 29, 2014 Report Share Posted December 29, 2014 Laugh for the day: Teach your dog how to follow directional movement and go where you ask it to. Tie the dog to the end of a long stick and point it in different directions, forcing the dog to move where the stick is pointing to: http://www.wikihow.com/Teach-Your-Dog-to-Herd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GentleLake Posted December 29, 2014 Report Share Posted December 29, 2014 Geez. If the How to Train Your Dog to Herd was bad (and it was), the instructions to be a shepherd are exponentially worse. Unfrigginbelievable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smalahundur Posted December 29, 2014 Report Share Posted December 29, 2014 How to herd; Oh noes, I have been doing it wrong all those years... How to be a shepherd; This is kind of surreal...To an extend that I think (hope) it is just meant humorously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxi Posted December 29, 2014 Report Share Posted December 29, 2014 ...the sad thing is that I have heard of some old fashioned methods which did use a similar approach as that described in the herding instructions. .but.I have to admit, I did think that both posts were an attempt at humour and/or an effort to undermine the trustworthiness of wiki posts.

Jeanne Joy Posted December 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2014 "be sure to yell at your sheepdog to chase the sheep wherever you want them to go" before you send him to bring you a beer! Smalahundur do you have any free sheep to give away? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juliepoudrier Posted December 29, 2014 Report Share Posted December 29, 2014 I sure hope it's tongue-in-cheek. I liked the part about using lambs to train your inexperienced dog with, because, you know, they'll self cull while your dog is still learning. I think Katz must've written that.... J.

dsmbc Posted December 30, 2014 Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 Those are hilarious! I do especially love "the tie a stick and point" bit on the how to train your dog to herd. How to become a shepherd is pretty funny too. Someone had to have been bored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
