Alrighty, simple answer. There are all sorts of recipes and the ingredients vary a lot but the 'Shepperd's' in the name refers to sheep herders not dogs.

Unfortunately, shepherd's pie is made with lamb...
: (
It would be much more amusing if it was made with shepherds!!!
BTW, if it's made with beef it's called a 'cottage pie' ... even though there are no cottages in it!!!
(Disgraceful, that's what I call it!! Talk about misleading advertising... moan moan moan...!!)
