I love to watch Red watching sheep, he sits in a kind of crouch, standing up on his forelegs for the best possible view. He does not move, will not take a treat, be bribed or distracted in any way. He will hold his position for hours. In delightful contrast, his companion Fate, is never still, she runs in circles around the sheep for as long as she can stand, I call her off when her tongue is hanging off the ground.

The sheep no longer pay the slightest attention to, she is just part of the scenery. Red at work is a study in fidelity, concentration and focus.
