Wow!
I love watching Border Collies work, but this definitely raises the bar! :)

That is incredible work!
I still can't believe that they had the time and precision to pull off the 'Mona Lisa' composite....:bows:
It is amazing how they can instruct the dogs with simple whistle calls.

I know what you mean, Joe. I've got a friend up in Wisconsin that raises and trains them, and they do some unbelievable things hearding animals based on instinct and simple commands.
If you ever get a chance to attend a Border Collie field demonstration, by all means do so, they are amazing animals.

I saw a larger/longer/more detailed vid of the project, and it's really astonishing.
One wonders, though, what the kibble to scotch ratio was. :D
