West Kerry Sheepdog Demonstrations

West Kerry Sheepdog Demonstrations is based at Derrymore West, County Kerry, on the northern side of the Dingle Peninsula between Tralee and Camp.

Sheepdog demonstrations give visitors a close look at working border collies and the whistles and commands used to move sheep across open hill ground. It is a genuine part of farming life in this part of Kerry, where sheep are grazed on the slopes of the Slieve Mish Mountains. Demonstrations are usually held outdoors and are popular with families and anyone curious about how a hill farm actually works.
