The Shepherd's Pup
Training the Sheepdog the Scrimgeour Way
Featuring Derek Scrimgeour & Gus Dermody
In this programme Derek Scrimgeour, sheep farmer and one of the UK’s premier sheepdog handlers and trainers, takes Gus Dermody, commentator for BBC 1’s ’One Man and His dog’ through choosing and training a young dog for farm work using his highly acclaimed method of sheepdog training.
Aimed at anyone with an interest in these highly intelligent dogs, this film begins with guidance on what to look for when choosing a pup from a litter. Derek then moves onto covering the 8 key steps of training that start at a few weeks old in the kennel and end with a well trained, confident and enthusiastic young sheepdog.
