Had the best time watching the dogs, listening to Michael, and seeing the sheep. Becoming best friends with world renowned sheep herder, Dennis, was also a highlight. Highly recommend!

It was a privilege to see Michael and his dogs working together; something to aspire to 💯.

Michael is a wonderful, charming story teller. His adorable dogs are hard workers who love their job. Kids and adults enjoyed.

Called in advance, Michael is awesome.

We really enjoyed hearing about the sheep and the working sheep dogs.

So much fun for the whole family!! Michael is amazing!

I can’t say enough about how fun this was. We were a group of four ladies and we had a private demo. Mike answered all our questions and shared his... read more life story with us. We didn’t feel rushed and just enjoyed. We loved seeing his dogs in action. One was an old hand at it and one was still learning but had tons of energy and willingness. Thank you Mike and sorry you had to wait for us as we were lost navigating!

Such a great visit and Michael truly made the experience! His knowledge of the history of the dogs as well as the wool market in Ireland was incredibly educational. I... read more would say this is a must visit because you also get to take in some exceptional scenery along the way.

Michael, Maggie, and Rose - what a dream team! We absolutely recommend a visit, learned a lot and thoroughly enjoyed the lovely company.

If there is one thing I can ABSOLUTELY recommend to do while in Ireland, it is to watch these working dogs! Michael was so hospitable and welcoming, considerate and overall... read more very entertaining the entire time we were there. From the moment he noticed we had small children, he switched dogs (just out of precautions, he knows his animals) he informed us of his background, gave us a wonderful lesson on the history of working dogs, taught us so much about sheep, the every day life of a sheep farmer, taught us plenty of basic tactics his dogs learned, and the demonstration was fantastic. He let us interact with fresh lambs he had on the farm, with his pups, if I could’ve taken one home I would have! Please give Michael a call, it’s an amazing opportunity to learn about an important aspect of the Irish community, and we will absolutely visit him again when we get the chance!

Really nice and excited experience of sheep dog demonstration ??‍

Was an awesome experience ?✨

Very good explanation and makes you laugh.

Very nice and interesting!

Michael was wonderful, educational, and an all around good time for our visit. And here I'm posting months later because I had picked up a pair of wool socks.... read more And now (Jan 2024) it's blizzarding in my home state of Iowa and these have been the warmest, best socks. Today's high was -2 °F and 40 mph wind gusts. But in my boots, those socks kept me warm and comfortable.

This is a wonderful experience, I really liked it.

Best thing we did in Ireland.

Loved the dogs, so cool what they can do.

Michael is the real deal! Fantastic experience! Highly recommend!

One of my favourite places to bring guests. Highly recommend visiting. Great for adults and children.

Awesome demonstration with a friendly, informative host and some very clever dogs showing off their skills and training

Michael was delightful as were his dogs! He was informative and funny and we really loved learning about just what goes into training these amazing work dogs and more insights... read more into sheep farming! Would totally recommend! He also gave us some tips on hiking around the area, etc…a super nice guy.

Very interesting and makes you want to support all local farmers. You feel the heart and soul that goes into the sheepdog training- but also the sheep industry importance. Well... read more worth the visit.

It was fantastic show. Gives lots of information. Highly recommend going to see

One of my favorites from our visit to Ireland! Really interesting to see and learn more about! Super friendly farmer and dogs!

Great experience. Michael Crowe, a renowned sheepdog handler offers a memorable experience of seeing working border collies in action. The beautiful views and vibrant scenery of Kildare and Wicklow create... read more the perfect backdrop and a genuine atmosphere where you will be engrossed in the Irish countryside. You will get the chance to see the Wicklow cheviot sheep being managed by expertly trained sheepdogs. Allow yourself a snapshot of a real Irish experience. The only problem in my opinion, the exhibition is really short in time but very interesting!

My father said he wanted to go to sheep dog training and i was happy to take him. I thought after the lesson he would finally sit and stay when... read more i whistled. Unfortunately it turned out that that wasn't what was happening. I'm still giving 5 stars though because the dogs were adorable and the demonstration i saw was fun and informative.

10/10 experience! Had the best time here and would absolutely recommend. A very unique thing to watch and the dogs are adorable and skilled

We had an amazing time at the Irish Working Sheepdog demonstration this week! Michael was funny, informative and answered any questions we had. After describing what and how... read more the dogs are trained to do, we were able to watch Maggie bring in the sheep. Then, a younger dog was put through her paces with the sheep as well. So amazing! Lisa was wonderful to work with prior to our visit and payment was only due at the end of the demonstration. Thank you again for a wonderful visit to your beautiful farm!

Ganz coole Vorführung der Schäferhunde. Nachher durfte man die kleinen Schäfchen knuddeln.....

Terrific Experience. Learned a lot about Sheep and how the dogs keep the sheep in line.

Highly recommend it!!! Super friendly, interesting and relevant. Street parking only

This is a great spot/experience and well worth a visit

Micheal was awesome! He really broke down what he looks for in a successful working dog, and why those traits were important. He was super knowledgeable and very friendly to... read more chat with. He gave us some good tips on what to check out near by as well. Very cool to see the demonstration in action as well!

Our "host" was fantastic, explaining everything in detail and provided and excellent demo.

Michael and his dogs are amazing! We called at the last minute to book a demonstration and he asked our location which was nearby and he told us to... read more come on over. He is very knowledgeable and understands his dogs and how to work with them. He recognizes a good dog that will not back down from the sheep.
