Description

We use stockdogs to herd cattle at $1.50 per pound and we keep livestock guardian dogs to protect $3.00-per-pound lambs. In both cases we  believe our dogs make us money and add to the experience. But, what if you could switch to a crop that sells for around $1,000 per pound and a good working dog would be more essential than ever? Welcome to Farm Dog.

Farm Dog is presented by Goats On The Go® and hosted by its founder, Aaron Steele. Questions, comments, or topic suggestions? Let us know at GoatsOnTheGo.com/FarmDog.

The podcast about the working dogs of farming, ranching, homesteading, and rural living. Presented by Goats On The Go® and hosted by its founder, Aaron Steele. We discuss the fascinating history and current practice of humans working with dogs to make a living from the land. Our chats with experts cover breeds, training, on-farm experiences, and more. Herding (stockdogs) and livestock guardian dogs are frequent topics, but terriers, hunting dogs, and good ol' all-around farm dogs are up for discussion, too. If it produces, protects, or provides for our rural lives, we'll talk about it.
