Loved the dogs, so cool what they can do.

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!

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

Fantastic experience. Host was very friendly and provided an excellent presentation. He allowed audience participation and even allowed us to feed a baby lamb. The drive to the location was... read more breathtaking. Highly recommend this experience.

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

Called in advance, Michael is awesome.

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.

Was an awesome experience ?✨

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!

Excellent explanation of the working dogs and sheep herding. I have seen this before but not such detailed explanation and demonstration. The different whistles and control was truly amazing. The... read more little store to buy products was good local products.

Fantastic experience, impressive to see the intelligence and discipline of a working dog?☘️

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

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

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!

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

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. 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.

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

This is a wonderful experience, I really liked it.

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

Very good explanation and makes you laugh.

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

Best thing we did in Ireland.

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!

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.

Très intéressant est impressionnant. Je n'attendais pas grand chose de cette attraction et j'ai été très agréablement surpris

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!

It was awesome! Our guide was great

Amazing show. Fly was so cute

The demonstration and history were fascinating, and the owners were very friendly and incredibly knowledgeable.

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

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

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.

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

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