I have a Rottweiler (3 months old) and he gets along well with my chickens. I've read that Rottweilers were used to herd cattle on foot from one place to another (droving). This herding instinct would be useful for moving the chickens from one place to another throughout the day. Later on I might have turkeys, and eventually goats. So a herding dog would be nice. Does anyone know of any sites, books, or other sources that explain how to go about training a dog to herd...more particularly droving? Thanks for any help you can offer.
