Caught this fun herding demo at Spruce Meadows' PetFest—a black-and-white herding dog (think Border Collie or Aussie Shepherd style) expertly rounding up a group of ducks in the arena. The ducks waddle, the dog stalks and directs with that famous intense stare and quick moves—same skills used for sheep on farms!It's mesmerizing to watch the teamwork: dog and handler in sync, ducks moving as one flock without a fuss.
PetFest brings these cool animal demos, and this one stole the show.

I seem to end up going to nearly every PetFest, due to the simple fact that I love the animals, always something to see, and, sometimes they have little shows with some extremely talented animals that are so well trained it is quite amazing.
What do you think—ever seen duck herding before? Drop a comment!
