This photo was taken while driving in the Land Rover. Tay was in the
picture. Jess was out of sight. We were driving
approximately 80 beef cattle back to the yard.

Jess fetched a beast back that got away.

Jess made sure that the bullock understood what was to be done.

Jess and Dewi explained things to one feisty beast.

This bullock faced down Dewi; Dewi didn't back down.

Dewi held up the bullocks at the feed trough. That allowed time
to put feed into the troughs without putting myself in danger
of being knocked over and getting injured. Dogs that will
do this are a bonus at winter time when the cattle are keen to
come up for their feed.

This image showed Jess and Dewi after being called off the trough to
allow the cattle to feed.

This
image showed the cattle while feeding at the trough. While
feeding, it allows
a stockman, at a glance, to inspect the cattle while they are
feeding.

Dewi stood watch as the bullocks began to return to the holding pens.
