REVIEWS
“This is exactly what I needed. The video explanation and demonstration is clearly laid out in definite steps/exercises for the dog (and handler) to understand and master. I can’t wait to get back to the penned sheep!”
“I loved it. It is a great review. It is not over the head of a beginner. I think for someone with experience it is a good way to review their methods.”
“This video is thoughtfully constructed to be practical and helpful. There are plenty of real life illustrations for each step of the unpenning process. Recommended.”
“Thanks, Jerry, for getting us headed on the right track in herding with our dogs.”
“I’ve been a fan of this method from the first time attending a Jerry Rowe Camp. I like it because it teaches the dog that he can control without lunging and chasing, and at the same time gaining an early element of respect and teamwork with your dog.”
“Jerry Rowe is one of the premier trainers in the country. Jerry, and his wife Sharon, run the number one sheep herding training facilities in the nation. This video is an example of the world class training they provide. I highly recommend it. He explains the principles, the reasons behind the principles and then demonstrates with several handlers and dogs.”
“Made me feel like I was back at camp. Length was just right. A complete exercise that I could plan for part of a training session. Sufficient examples of unpenning using different dogs at varying levels of training. No problems viewing it on my iPad after I downloaded the free viewing software needed.”
“Jerry’s videos and training methods are fantastic!! My dogs’ performances are greatly improved using Jerry’s approach. As a bonus, Jerry is a natural instructor. His techniques are easy to understand and apply. I highly recommend Jerry’s methods.”
“As soon as he started talking a light bulb went on and I had a whole new feeling of confidence. … no matter what level of learning … I would recommend anyone interested in herding check out Jerry’s method.”
“This video is thoughtfully constructed to be practical and helpful. There are plenty of real life illustrations for each step of the unpenning process.”
“Jerry’s approach to training a herding dog has clarified so much for me. Instead of being frustrated with what I now know are normal, logical behaviors for my dogs, I am now learning to understand and use those behaviors to help him understand what I want of him. Best of all, Jerry’s methods avoid intimidation and harsh correction, rather helping the dog to figure out how to control the sheep in a very natural way, leaving his “sacred” instinct intact.”
“I learned long ago there are no such things as miracles but with Jerry’s methods and your perseverance even the most impossible dog can benefit from Jerry’s program. He offers a fresh realistic approach to herding that allows the dog to think while building a solid foundation for you and your dog.”
