Awesome dog! I used to have a collie and he used to herd everything, he just liked us all in a tight little unit, so funny. One question, what the hell is on the sheeps backs? Weird little backpacks?

They're actually little knitted sheepdogs that ride the sheep in the 'sheep grand national' - they look funny because they wobble all over the place (you can see the nose on the one with the blue jumper!)

Wow, sheep with knitted sheepdogs on thier backs, I think I'd like to see this, just to watch the dogs do what they do, I've seen some of these dog competitions and I'm always amazed. The sheep on the other hand are probably going, "I've had it up to here (gesturing up to hier backs) with sheep dogs" :)
