Pets with Purpose.
Develop an optimistic puppy through herding! Find clarity and purpose for their innate behaviours, and deepen your bond through a respect-based partnership.
At the same time your pup will be gaining social skills and positive exploration experiences in our indoor and outdoor spaces - having FUN along the way!
If you're looking to try sheep herding we offer private classes that are designed to teach you and your puppy the foundational skills needed to set you up for success.
We have a selection of sheep for herding practice -
suitable for novice and up!
Our Sheep range in age and variety as they are kept purely for wool.

Why Herding?
Herding dogs crave a mental challenge, they want to problem solve and have a job - in the modern context, they don't always have the benefit of access to sheep, so the outlet for this can take less desirable forms (like nipping), or results in nervousness and reactivity that simply shouldn't be there. Thankfully, herding dogs in the Calgary area have The Meadows! We'll help you shape your dog's innate ability to read and apply pressure to stock, in a calm, gentle, and stress free manner. Regardless of if they're a strong-eyed breed like Border Collies or Kelpies who thrive on distance work. Or upright breeds like Belgian Sheepdogs, Corgis, and Aussie Shepherds who use motion to motivate stock and are ideally suited for pen-work.
