Another example that eating cows would be like eating dogs 😉

3. I think he's an Australian Shepherd. They're similar, though.

4. I always get them mixed up but shouldn't, the shepherd is a lot furrier.

But shouldn't a shepherd be hanging out with sheep?

5. I think Australian Shepherds like to herd anything.

8. They DO! There's a few of them up here who herd the swans at Creamer's Field (a refuge).

Neat pups!

15. My daughter's dog is part Aussie Shepherd. When she first adopted her from a rescue, she

was 9 months old and anxious about being left alone. Whenever Becky and her husband went out for awhile, they'd come home to find all lightweight, movable furniture, along with pillows, folders, and anything else Phouka could collect, pushed and piled together in the middle of the living room.

So, yeah, Aussies will herd anything!

6. Thanks for posting that, catbyte

I had to do a Google search in order to see the video, but it was well worth it.

The next Dodo video shown was "This mother dog is crying for help so she can save her injured puppy"....Amazing and heartwarming!

Calvin looks more like a deer than a cow in the early footage.
