Kate has a heart of gold and I'm so happy you all let "Kate be Kate." She is a precious soul with a deep love. I'm so glad she has you all as her family.
Kate the Great is highly intelligent and she has an intuitive connection to your work and your life. She may have been nervous because her intelligence may have given her heightened senses. In any case she is so sweet now and you have an amazing heart for your dogs and sheep. Thank you for Kate's story 😊.
This was wonderful! It made me cry to see how well you understand her and allow her to be herself. And props to Stacey for recognizing Kate’s greatness and insisting to bring her into the family. ❤️🌸
sobbing at the part when u explained that you changed the direction of your training with her because you noticed she was nervous. AMAZING BOSS/PARENT 🙏🏽
We so enjoy learning about your country and sheep herding. You both are such kind and wise shepherds. Your gentle and clear understanding of the animals you work and live with is great to watch. Cheers from Chicago!
Love this video Sean. An amazing back story. She's a gorgeous girl, with a gentle face. No wonder Stacey insisted on you's buying her! Whatever her past, she's obviously completely happy and very much herself with you guys.
Kate reminds me A LOT of my girl, Collie. She looks exactly like her. Sadly, she passed away in her sleep a few years ago from heart failure at the age of 12, and i STILL miss her, but watching Kate, makes me feel like she's still around. She's a real sweetheart ❤
My Dog which was also a timid dog who ended up on my farm after 2 false starts, just passed away at 12 of a heart attack. She was never sick a day in her life. She looked just like Kate with the gray hair around her eyes. She was never injured. She was at the door always, always ready, always eager to go out. What a hole they leave when they are gone.
This is a great example of how a true partnership develops over time. I feel that a lot of dog parents/owners/handlers what polished doggos (no matter what it is - manners in the home, working duties, competition expectations, etc.) but they want this final product within an unreasonable amount of time for the dog. The dog must mature to their full potential before we can get the best from them - this is fair to me since we humans expect the same from one another. A dog is an investment of time, especially when we place high demands on them, such as the amazing work Kate does. I appreciate this video because it highlights how time can be the best way to handle quirks. I also appreciate this origin story because there's a great deal of gentleness, respect and kindness in your approach to Kate's development. That is what building a partnership is about.
I loved hearing this story. I know you are a great handler because you are willing to work with the dog’s strengths and weaknesses rather than trying to have it all “my way or the highway”. 💛
What a great story about Kate and a fantastic outcome. She is a wonderful border collie. I would say that Stacey has a good intuition. Certainly can see the love Kate has for her family.
What a wonderful story! You have such insight into your dogs & yourself. You allow yourself to meet them halfway & accept them for who they are & yet they respect you but more than that they love you. Personally, I think they would die for you if it came to that. I have always believed that people who have such love & respect for animals do also for humans.
Thank you for telling us the story of Kate! It's amazing how different the psychology of each animal is. By the way, has she always done that thing where she leans to one side and excitedly puts her paw out? I see it in so many of your videos and it's so cute!
What a lovely story! Seems you were destined to have Kate in your family. Very interesting about her knowing where the gates are and what you want with little direction needed. I think you're a natural handler and your success with Kate proves it! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much for sharing the story. She is so happy to be with you two now. She stares at him while he talks about her. It's as if to say, "You're talking about me, aren't you?" She's a really smart girl, Kate! 🥰
BEST BACKSTORY EVER! Thank GOD for Stacy& your love and patience for this wonderful creation! I LOVE EVERYTHING YOU POST!!! After she had her pups KATE the GREAT emerged!!! Thank you for sharing!!!
Watching Kate look at you with those love eyes was 😭🥰😍❤️ She knew you were talking about her and she was trying to play it cool but she just couldn’t help herself. 😊
Great story! Made me laugh when you said you weren't sure with all the practicalities, but as soon as Stacey met her...!! Love thinking about her watching clouds, birds... life. Bless her! Bless you too for giving her all that love.
So great that you allow her to live her life and have the freedom to do it her way instead of forcing her to do things differently. Her intuition is so strong.
Kate sounds like an amazing girl! More impressive is your keen insight into her personality. If only every dog had a human who understood and believed in letting them be who they are!
I am a 67yo woman in New South Wales, Australia and I absolutely love your videos! Love your beautiful dogs, they are so talented and I love all your commentary. Thank you for the awesome videos they are fantastic
Absolutely brilliant. But also makes me very sad for the three years I enjoyed in Scotland before being forced to return to US. You and your dogs are just the icing on the cake. 🏴🏴🏴❤️
Brand new subscriber here. I love Kate. Everything you say here seems to reinforce her intelligence. Beautiful. We had a Border Collie during my childhood. 44 years, and not a week passes that I don't think of him. RIP Chip.
I love all your dogs, but I do especially love watching Kate work. You can tell how much joy she has in it, so it was great to hear her story. Also, wonderful to see how in tune you and Stacey are with each of your animals. I think my favorite part of the video, though, was the “and now Kate is” and Kate was basically like, “Kate is wondering why you’re focused on that thing over there and not on rubbing my tummy like you should be!” 🤣🥰
What an amazing dog & what an awesome handler! You were patient & kind with her allowed her to be herself and look what she has given you in return. Wow. Truly a great story.
I know this was 2 years ago, but I'm really happy to know more about each of your dogs. They are truly remarkable in their own ways. I think that's important that you don't try to change them. They will love and work for you no matter what. That's pretty darn special. Thanks for sharing Kate's story. I really enjoyed this video. From Deep in the Heart of Texas
When I saw the thumbnail for this video, I was so happy! Thank you, Sean, for sharing her story. She looks at you so adoringly… Kate is such a special girl and you and Stacey are the best “parents” for her!
thanks Sean. SO much love for your dogs is heartwarming. I am 68 years old and have always "liked" dogs (animals of all kinds truly) that was about as far as it went with dogs. My hubby was the dog person - not me. But when little Patriot came into our lives I fell head-over-heals in love with a dog! Our first Border collie (always healers & Labrador before). She is the MOST amazing dog I have EVER been around. I adore her - so understand Stacey's appeal for Kate. Personality PLUS! Will love her to the ends of this earth.
Kate has you trained very well. But seriously, no two dogs are alike in their learning. The success lies in their handler’s ability to discern that. When you did that you won her confidence. Well done Sean!
Kate is a sweetie. And the way she works is amazing. So glad you got her. Someone else might not have had the patience with her like you or realized her strong points as you have. May the Lord watch over you ,Stacy and all your fur babies. Love from a sister in Christ.
This is great to get the background on your dogs and how wise your wife is. Kate knew you speaking about her, she held her head proud as she recognized that you were speaking well of her. Kudos to you for letting Kate do what she does best. As well, I saw the video where you spoke about the dogs and I now I know that Kate, Storm and Echo are all related, Monty is the house dog. I love watching your dogs work, I think they want to please you. All the best and thanks again.
I loved that video and the honesty behind her story. I didn’t realise dogs were trained first and then passed on to you. I thought you trained them from puppies yourselves. Kate seems adorable and was nice of your wife to decide she was going to be yours. That is a decision I am sure you will never regret. Interesting also that you appreciate the impact of your own handling abilities on the dog. I should think it’s quite nerve wracking getting used to working with a sheepdog - who taught you about sheepdog handling? There’s another potential video!! Sounds like you kind of learnt together
Wow so close to tears of happiness! Your love for Kate, taking the time to understand and observe her and then nurture her in the way that is best for her just brings me such joy! What a great family❤
I just love hearing about Kate. Kate looks a good bit like my 1st BC, Fly. I got Fly at 9 yrs old, she came off the ranch as a retired dog, and came to me to live as a ‘Diva’. Ok not really, but she got a good retired life. She still got to work on occasion and I saw just what you’ve seen with Kate - Fly knew the ropes. Kinda like riding a horse, you give the horse its head. Give Fly, or Kate, the reins and they’re amazing. Fly also had the uncanny ability to know what to do, where to go, etc. A real mind reader. I always love watching Kate work. Thank you for sharing! ❤️
Thank you for sharing Kate's beginnings with you it is truly a match made in heaven! Kudos to Stacy for recognizing the connection right away. You two seem to be very tuned in to each other! We had a Border Collie that we "rescued" from an acquaintence. It became obvious right away by her nervousness that Sami needed lots of reassurance. My husband noticed he couldn't rattle the newspaper or pick up a hairbrush without Sami making for a corner. So you know that must have been some serious issues for her. Once she learned her place was secure and she grew more confident, she was SOOO obedient, it almost made us cry at how she tried so hard to please us. However, she did learn she was truly loved and safe, and we were blessed many times over. We understand your Kate is a very exceptional dog, and we are blessed that you share her with us! Thank you very much!!
Loved hearing Kate's back story. She is a special one. Your channel is awesome. There's something about watching dogs in their element that's heartwarming. ❤
Awesome to hear Kates story! I’ve just subscribed and met your family of videos today! Wow!! Loving it!! We have our own wonderful Border- Riley!! He was a shelter pup- we adopted st 10 months old, he’s now 7! Learning so much from you and your channel Sean! wish we had a better job for Riley and could see him in action on a farm, (we live in Indiana, but in a city) but run him in a large park every day. I feel his instincts are very strong and he’d do extremely well herding. but for now I’ll just keep learning from you and continue being inspired and amazed at your beautiful pups! Really enjoying your videos!! Thank you!! 10:24
She looks at you with so much love. It is adorable. I can see how much your dogs love and trust you, and it means so much. It's just beautiful to see. My aunt took in a rescue, and he was an absolute pain in the arse. Would bark aggressively at me and everyone and was very on edge, which put me on edge. Wow has he done a 180. That kind of trauma doesn't last forever ❤
This is a great backstory, one that helps me have confidence about the two male Border Collie puppies we will be acquiring soon. I was second-guessing myself about the timing, and what we are getting ourselves into, and this video helped me remember that many wonderful things come our way when the timing seems off, and when they are wonderful living things, they are precious in their own rights.
Sean you have such amazing senses and sensitivity for your dogs. It’s amazing! After work I watch your videos and ai feel instantly more calm. Thank you. 🐶🙋♀️
She's my favorite. She has that je ne said quoi! The little white on her face and eyes and such willingness to work and be with dad and mom just made her my favorite. I love all your dogs, but she has something special in my heart. She has an old soul. She seems to know what you expect of her and where you want the sheep.
I m glad to get to know Kate better, even though I am listening to this vlog a year later. You mentioned several traits I experienced with my Border Collie , Toro, who I got when she was a puppy. Toro and Kate came out of their shells, yet still had a certain independence, in a good way, and became incredible working dogs. Their unique listening skills and independence allowed them to still perform the job asked by humans. 🥰👍❤️
A friend of mine had a German Shepard Dog that did something similar to Kate. She was a very bossy dog and wanted what she wanted when she wanted it and would let you know about it. She also had a lot of energy and needed a lot of interaction from her people. Kate is a beauty and a wonderful dog. Love all the dogs.
So grateful for your, Stacey's, and other pups' patience with Kate. Gosh she is smart. As I'm watching this video I can see how much she loves you. She watches you with such adoring eyes. So cute how she started out all propped up in the frame and then sloooowly worked her way down as you pet her😅 Oh such a good bubba❤
Fantastic back story and how well you met Kate on her terms and took your time helping her, retraining and working with her strengths keep things positive. ❤
All of the dogs are special, but wow, does Kate have a little something extra. You can see it in her eyes. What a remarkable friend you have.
I was noticing the same thing. She has a certain twinkle in her eyes. Very special
i dont see it in her eyes in foto from the beginning. That's trust and thankfulness build from acceptance by her new, current owners.
Cracked me up. Kate was like “Dad, you’re talking about me. I’m right here”. She is such a brilliant dog!!
Kate has a heart of gold and I'm so happy you all let "Kate be Kate." She is a precious soul with a deep love. I'm so glad she has you all as her family.
Loved when you said Kate does it her way. We have a Border Collie and she has trained me far more than I have trained her.
Kate the Great is highly intelligent and she has an intuitive connection to your work and your life. She may have been nervous because her intelligence may have given her heightened senses. In any case she is so sweet now and you have an amazing heart for your dogs and sheep. Thank you for Kate's story 😊.
This was wonderful! It made me cry to see how well you understand her and allow her to be herself. And props to Stacey for recognizing Kate’s greatness and insisting to bring her into the family. ❤️🌸

We so enjoy learning about your country and sheep herding. You both are such kind and wise shepherds. Your gentle and clear understanding of the animals you work and live with is great to watch. Cheers from Chicago!
Kate is looking at you with hearts and butterflies floating from her eyes.🥰😇
The looks she gave you at the start were amazing. Such a great connection.
You have beautiful insight into your dog and clearly see them as more than working dogs 🐾❤️
Beautiful dog. 🥰 She looks at you with love.
My gosh, Kate is so lucky living her best life with two such understanding angels! May you all live long and very happy lives together! ❤️
That was the most captivating dog story I've ever heard! Such a happy ending.
Love this video Sean. An amazing back story. She's a gorgeous girl, with a gentle face. No wonder Stacey insisted on you's buying her! Whatever her past, she's obviously completely happy and very much herself with you guys.
The depth of Sean's understanding of Kate's whole being is so touching. ❤❤❤
Kate’s adorable…such a sensitive and responsive nature. Thank you for her story. Love the way she looks at you when youre naming her good traits😄❤
Kate is smart and beautiful and effective on the farm. Well done to you as a trainer to find where she shines and let her embrace that.
Kate reminds me A LOT of my girl, Collie. She looks exactly like her.
Sadly, she passed away in her sleep a few years ago from heart failure at the age of 12, and i STILL miss her, but watching Kate, makes me feel like she's still around. She's a real sweetheart ❤

I know what you're going through...it's devastating when they leave u that quickly and without warning @@littlecovefarm

I absolutely adore Kate. The twinkle in her eyes is special. Such a graceful pup.
You and your wife a very special people. Kate doesn’t look like her arrival photos. She’s a whole new dog. So healthy looking. One lucky dog👍
I loved hearing this story. I know you are a great handler because you are willing to work with the dog’s strengths and weaknesses rather than trying to have it all “my way or the highway”. 💛

You area definitely in tune with your animals and share a marvelous bond.
We love all your videos. Thanks so much for sharing your lives with us. You and Kate are both one in a billion and I'm so happy you found each other!
BEST BACKSTORY EVER! Thank GOD for Stacy& your love and patience for this wonderful creation! I LOVE EVERYTHING YOU POST!!! After she had her pups KATE the GREAT emerged!!! Thank you for sharing!!!
She clearly adores you! She’s an amazing dog.
I'm glad you listened to Stacy and got Kate. It seems she learned from you, and she taught you to be a better handler. Lovely story.
Kate has those big adoring eyes for you!
This is a great video about her and your sensitivity to her needs and working style. Thank you!
Watching Kate look at you with those love eyes was 😭🥰😍❤️ She knew you were talking about her and she was trying to play it cool but she just couldn’t help herself. 😊
Great story! Made me laugh when you said you weren't sure with all the practicalities, but as soon as Stacey met her...!!
Love thinking about her watching clouds, birds... life. Bless her! Bless you too for giving her all that love.
Kate knows she's being talked about as she looks at you with adoration. Thanks Stacy, for one of the best decisions you will ever help Sean make.❤❤❤
🥰 the way she lovingly looks at you when she’s being pet!
Sean, she obviously adores you! The way she looks at you , you can tell she is utterly smitten ❤ What a sweetheart of a dog!!
Your energy and the dogs happiness added to the beautiful place you live makes your videos so special. Thank you ❤
So great that you allow her to live her life and have the freedom to do it her way instead of forcing her to do things differently. Her intuition is so strong.
Loved this! So glad for Kate, and of course for you both. Greetings from South Africa.
Sounds like you and Kate helped each other with confidence. I love to see her looking at you when you’re talking. She’s beautiful. 💜
She’s beautiful. Thanks to God she came to you.
What a beautiful story. Thank you both for saving Kate
Kate sounds like an amazing girl! More impressive is your keen insight into her personality. If only every dog had a human who understood and believed in letting them be who they are!
I can relate to a lot of what you say about Kate and your videos have helped me understand my own sheepdogs behavior. Thank you.
You all are incredible! Thanks for explaining her story ❤
Kate looks at you with such love. She's so adorable. Love her ❤
I love when you do your boops that Kate always boops ya back! She’s something else! You’re a great team. Thanks for sharing her story
Kate is so beautiful....I love the way she looks at you, adoringly, Sean! Thank you for sharing!
I am a 67yo woman in New South Wales, Australia and I absolutely love your videos! Love your beautiful dogs, they are so talented and I love all your commentary. Thank you for the awesome videos they are fantastic

Great dog,just like my OSSI who works on cows,sheep and goats..Greetings from Patagonia!
Kate looks at you with such reverence in this video, especially when you say her name. 😊
This is great to get the background on your dogs and how wise your wife is. Kate knew you speaking about her, she held her head proud as she recognized that you were speaking well of her.

We had a Border Collie that we "rescued" from an acquaintence. It became obvious right away by her nervousness that Sami needed lots of reassurance.

She is incredible
Excellent video showing your care and compassion for sweet Kate. You’re a great friend to her.
Awesome to hear Kates story! I’ve just subscribed and met your family of videos today! Wow!! Loving it!!
We have our own wonderful Border- Riley!! He was a shelter pup- we adopted st 10 months old, he’s now 7! Learning so much from you and your channel Sean! wish we had a better job for Riley and could see him in action on a farm, (we live in Indiana, but in a city) but run him in a large park every day.
I feel his instincts are very strong and he’d do extremely well herding. but for now I’ll just keep learning from you and continue being inspired and amazed at your beautiful pups! Really enjoying your videos!! Thank you!! 10:24
Love her facial expressions whilst you were talking about her .❤ What a gorgeous lady.!
Great story! Thanks for sharing!
She looks at you with so much love. It is adorable. I can see how much your dogs love and trust you, and it means so much. It's just beautiful to see. My aunt took in a rescue, and he was an absolute pain in the arse. Would bark aggressively at me and everyone and was very on edge, which put me on edge. Wow has he done a 180. That kind of trauma doesn't last forever ❤
Gracias por compartir la historia de esa hermosa trabajadora.❤❤❤
After watching Kate going for a stroll with you, I looked at this again, The Story of Kate. Heartwarming. You’re great.
You truly have a good and caring relationship with your dogs.
I really enjoy watching your dogs! Kate is my favorite. ❤❤
I love your videos and this one was really good! All the insights about Kate's personality and behavior. So interesting!!!
This is a great backstory, one that helps me have confidence about the two male Border Collie puppies we will be acquiring soon. I was second-guessing myself about the timing, and what we are getting ourselves into, and this video helped me remember that many wonderful things come our way when the timing seems off, and when they are wonderful living things, they are precious in their own rights.
Sean you have such amazing senses and sensitivity for your dogs. It’s amazing! After work I watch your videos and ai feel instantly more calm. Thank you. 🐶🙋♀️
Thanks for telling the story of Kate. She is a gorgeous perfect dog for working and family.
She's my favorite. She has that je ne said quoi! The little white on her face and eyes and such willingness to work and be with dad and mom just made her my favorite. I love all your dogs, but she has something special in my heart. She has an old soul. She seems to know what you expect of her and where you want the sheep.
Love the way Kate looks at you with such loving eyes. ❤ Think you have done very well with her and all your dogs.
I m glad to get to know Kate better, even though I am listening to this vlog a year later. You mentioned several traits I experienced with my Border Collie , Toro, who I got when she was a puppy.

What a beautiful, fascinating and heart warming story . Thanks for sharing it . SHe's Lucky to have such a wonderful master.
Thank you for sharing Kate’s story! She’s the head of a line of champions ♥️ and she clearly adores you😊
A friend of mine had a German Shepard Dog that did something similar to Kate. She was a very bossy dog and wanted what she wanted when she wanted it and would let you know about it. She also had a lot of energy and needed a lot of interaction from her people. Kate is a beauty and a wonderful dog. Love all the dogs.
Love these videos, I can't get enough 😂. Thank you for sharing your lovely world with your wife and amazing dogs.
It's so cute how she looks at Sean when he's talking. She looks like she understands every word. What an intelligent expression she has!
She's a very special dog. What a gift.
So grateful for your, Stacey's, and other pups' patience with Kate. Gosh she is smart. As I'm watching this video I can see how much she loves you. She watches you with such adoring eyes. So cute how she started out all propped up in the frame and then sloooowly worked her way down as you pet her😅 Oh such a good bubba❤
Fantastic back story and how well you met Kate on her terms and took your time helping her, retraining and working with her strengths keep things positive. ❤
