One of the beginner's main obstacles to training a sheepdog is that the person has to control the sheep while encouraging the dog to go around them.  The typical way to do this is to use an experienced sheepdog to keep the sheep in the centre of the paddock.  Andy Nickless bases his training on containing the sheep without the need for the second dog.

In the first dvd of this two-dvd set, Andy shows how his system works.  He explains in detail how to choose the right dog, the choice of sheep, management of a field, advice on what the handler must know, when to start training the dog and how to proceed.

The second dvd shows clearly the basic training of three young dogs with very different temperaments.
