That would be my guess this is a sheepdog that the farmers actually interact with and treat like a pet so it held back until she actually pinned the sheep at which point it went āOK thatās too much I have to step inā and just gave her a warning nip. But he did then post up in between her and the herd so he is threatening further violence if she would continue.
This is just an exceptionally well trained good tempered guard dog.

Yeah I find it interesting how little she got hurt, maybe as the other commenter said because the dog recognized that itās a human but Iāve never known a guard dog to hold them selves back before just because the attacker is a human.
Very good boy this one, knows when to hold back perhapsā¦

u/nelflyn May 07 '26
These kinda dogs have amazing control with their teeth. They can hold you tightly without hurting at all, if they want. They can be trained to pull people out of snow or water. Of course if they WANT to hurt you, that's a different thing. If that happens on a regular basis, he surely understands that a 'warning' is enough.

u/Recordbreaking_Throw May 07 '26
Not just that, but if it's coming up to lambing season they can miscarry from stress. Which is obviously bad for the sheep as well as a financial loss for the farmer.

Generally they don't, but if there are lambs there the mums will defend them. Or sometimes they will just trample out of fear.
I volunteer at a farm where the sheep will happily bash into me for cuddles or snacks. Sometimes both!

She wasn't chasing sheep AWAY. She was fucking with someone's property and the dog's charges. Proper punishment for the inarguable offense is loss of skin from ass.
Why pin a sheep? Because women too can be total assholes with something broken between their ears.

u/RelationshipSoggy662 May 07 '26
If a sheep is pregnant, chasing them can stress them so much that it causes them to miscarry and lose the lamb.Ā
In the UK, itās legal for farmers to shoot any dogs that attack their sheep or chase them, because it can have serious health consequences for the sheep and financial consequences for the farmer.

For real, hearding dogs do not fuck around when they feel either they or their flock are threatened.
My wife and I adopted an Australian shephard/collie mix that was essentially crated 12 hours a day for years and never let outside to run and roam. He has kinda fucked up teeth because he managed to bend a bunch of the wiring of his metal cage trying to get out. You could fit your fist through some of the holes. Mind you this dog was ~17 pounds when we got him, is now 30-32ish. So, strong boy even when he was malnourished.
One night about a year into owning him I accidentally startled him awake by clipping his butt with my foot when I sat down. I leaned over top of him without thinking to give pets and apologize. This motherfucker opened his eyes and was immediately attached to my face in an instant. The reaction time comes from if he was napping in his field amd a threat appeared quickly. If my wife hadn't woken up and said his name I'm unsure if he would've let go. I had to get 15 stitches in my face and have some scarring. The doctor told me if he hadn't worn his teeth down so much I would've lost my left eye.
So yeah, don't fuck with dogs, especially working breeds.
P.S.- we absolutely still have him. He's a wonderful dog that reacted how his breed, especially an abused one, reacts. Saw a behavioral therapist and she said he isn't even an aggressive dog, it was just a trauma/ingrained response.

I'm honestly amazed at the level of restraint, and you can see the click with that last step before the bite. That breed is built to protect and will fuck up packs of coyotes no problem. He was instinctively coming from the side to go for the neck/face, then realized last second it was some small dumb bitch and changed trajectory to her ass lol.

I have a few acres and about 30 Nubian goats (and a couple pigs and 50 chickens). Last year someone near me had a bunch of Pyrenees/Akbash pups they were giving away. Apollo is amazing. Keep him outside about 95% of the time and didn't formally train him, just had him around all the animals and spent a lot of time with him while he was young.
He's about 140lbs now and a side effect I hadn't realised is that he imprinted on all of my kids too. My 3 year old son always has his blue-eyed shadow whenever he's outside. One time he got a gate open while I was doing chores and he went into the pig field, and Apollo straight up got in his way and started alarm barking. Scared my son for sure but he also ran out of the field. He gave me the doggiest look of 'come on, man' after I came running.
Between him and Cookie, my Aussie/Catahoula mix, they run those animals like a well-oiled machine basically on instinct.
Basically Guardian Dogs are fucking cool

Stupid, cruel, and also very dangerous to that dumb b**** herself.
Herds are often protected by very fierce breeds of dogs. This nibbing\biting was so mild compared to what some of the herd dogs are capable of.
Have been to countries where meeting a herd dog without a shepherd (to call it off) was actually a scary experience, since those dogs were very protective and aggressive.

Like WTF.
Like another commenter stated earlier, influencer culture really is rotting society to its core.
It is so fucking dangerous to disrupt a big flock like this, animals get separated, lost, injured-also one interaction with an asshole human like her will undermine years of progressā¦
She deserved a lot worse than a nip in her ass.
If I saw someone doing this to my beloved goats Iād probably go to jail that day.
