What a gorgeous activity to do, especially on a lovely dry, sunny day. Joe was friendly and informative. His dogs, lambs and goats were so cute. The view from Joe's home is worth the trip! 😍 A stunning part of Ireland. Peaceful and unspoilt beauty all around. My kids and the adults really enjoyed the experience. Would highly recommend.

It was a wonderful experience! Joe told us a lot about his dogs, how he raises them, and then sheep keeping. The dogs were happy to see visitors, too! We also got to experience all four seasons while we drove up the country road and during the demonstration 😂
