 Bailey
is an incredibly intelligent dog with a strong desire to keep
order and protect his charges. He has shown merit in
herding abilities in both his on-the-farm chores and in herding
lessons. He works strange stock in a very dominant manner,
first glaring at them with an upright, empirical posture and
then following through with whatever force is needed.
Bailey is steadfast to the rules and enforces them on others.
Bailey insists that all stock stay in their proper place.
Chickens don't belong in the horse pasture. Horses don't
belong in the flowerbeds. He is a slave to routine and
will grow restless when chores aren't done in a timely fashion.
He is distrusting of newly added stock. He has protected
his master from a cantankerous bull and will herd the chickens
back in the coup when a hawk comes into sight. He helped
mother a bummer lamb. When that lamb grew up it trusted
Bailey so completely that traditional herding methods didn't
work. Bailey decided to move the lamb by enticing it to
follow him, sometimes picking up a toy for the lamb to follow.
He uses his brain. Bailey is fairly trusting of visitors
and does not always announce their arrival. He is true to
his territory, staying home to wait for a job. He wants to
please his master but is very opinionated on how to do so.
He likes other dogs, but will not tolerate strays on his yard.
He is exceedingly tolerant of children. |
