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

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.

Thank you Mike and sorry you had to wait for us as we were lost navigating!

Very fun experience learning about the how the Border Collies are trained and used. The gentleman gave us a great entertaining history of the farms , sheep , wool,... read more etc. I also got to hold and feed a baby goat! Highly recommend!

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

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

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!

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 was the best experience! Our family had the best time. We felt like we were a part of Michael's family. He was so warm, welcoming and so funny! The... read more demonstration and explanation of how dogs are trained was amazing! But after the demo he spent a lot of time just chatting with us. He even made a call to a friend of his to find a place we could listen to a live session. Michael went so far beyond what we were expecting. Do not miss this experience! Thank you, Michael! PS...We found a restaurant with delicious lamb last night!

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.

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

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

He also gave us some tips on hiking around the area, etc…a super nice guy.

Was an awesome experience ?✨

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!

Amazing show. Fly was so cute

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!

É uma experiência quase única para se ver. Vale a experiência, crianças devem gostar bastante também. O instrutor explica bastante sobre e é atencioso. No fim fiquei com dó das ovelhas hahahaha. A... read more lojinha achei um pouco expansiva, mas há produtos bem bonitos e bons.

Excellent demo of how sheepdogs work with the farmers. Mike is a gem.
