Observe Border collies at work and at play! On farms in Tennessee and Virginia, Border Collies herd sheep, cows and even a 2000 lb. bull! We meet Trish McConnell, an animal behaviorist, talk show host, and owner of 4 border collies. As we watch them we learn about the advantages and disadvantages of owning this breed.
