The number of dogs needed to herd a large flock of sheep depends on a few key factors, but here’s a general breakdown:

⸻

🐑 Size of the Flock

• Small flocks (under 100 sheep): Usually 1 trained herding dog is enough.

• Medium flocks (100–300): Typically 1–2 dogs can handle this, depending on terrain and training.

• Large flocks (500+ sheep): Usually 2–4 dogs are ideal, especially if the flock is spread out or moving over large distances.
