Eric Tighe here.  My aim when I created the Working Sheep Dog Show was to help owners of all Working Bred dogs live a happy, harmonious life with their best friend, either in the city where they are required to do nothing more than be a good friend to a farm environment where they spend their days mustering stock.  Life with your dog should be easy and calm.  Anything other than that and you could use some help.

Working Dogs are different to other dogs and I include a description of working dogs and the way some of these dogs work. Border Collies, Kelpies, Cattle dogs or Blue heelers and any form of Shepherd - German, Belgian, Australian and the Koolie.  Working Dogs were bred for a purpose and they are for the most part, exceptionally clever.  It is understanding and knowing how to work with their Growth Ages and Stages which will make your life a lot easier.


Read about my DVD "The Untold Secrets of Raising Working Dogs." Now.  It will save you time and money in your quest to live with and understand all dogs in any environment - city or country.

My group training programs educate owners on the special needs of working dogs, provide practical skills and address problem behavours to help ensure both the dog and owner can enjoy a happy and relaxed life together.  We also give your best friend a visit with the sheep to show you what natural ability your dog would have in the working world.  I also offer extensions on the sheep dog training with intermediate and advanced training sessions.  Gift vouchers now available for unique Christmas and Birthday gifts.

My specialised one-on-one behaviour training service is designed to address specific problem behavours your working dog may be displaying on an individual basis. With a combination of years of experience in the world of working bred dogs, I can make an astounding difference to your relationship with your dog. Also available is my "Stay and Train" program where you can leave your dog here with me on the farm for 10 days in which time I will work with any behaviourial issues you are experiencing.

I have done demonstrations for International Groups and Public Displays and am also available for training clinics for groups of dog owners, farmers and stockmen. Please contact me at workingsheepdogshow@bigpond.com
