Please excuse the quality of this video -- first time I ever attempted something like this, but I just wanted people to witness some wonderful dogs in action.
This is a very short video of my three livestock dogs "doing their job" today when one of my does kidded. There are three dogs in this video - hard to tell apart because they are all white, and all look alike - one of these dogs is three years old and more mature. She actually stood by and watched while the two youngsters - a female 8 months old, and a male, 10 months old, both purebred Maremma dogs -- took such tender care of the new baby. It is so amazing to watch, because these dogs truly act on instinct, and even as pups, seem to know just what to do.
