On TikTok, a farm owner from Yakima County, Washington State in the US, shared footage on the account "satusstockdogs" showing two shepherd puppies getting familiar with their future job.
As you can see in the video, the two little dogs are running after farm animals.
They watch over the farm animals
In the same video, we can see how the dogs develop as they take on their mission to protect and guide the animals. The dogs must ensure that no animal gets lost whilst under their watch.
As Newsweek points out, American farmers tend to favour the Bernese Mountain Dog, Australian Shepherd, Border Collie or Belgian Shepherd to guard their flocks.
A viral sensation
Viewed more than 4 million times, the video has gone viral on the social media platform.
