Sheepdogs are not born with the ability to herd sheep. They still need to be taught. Their parents and herdsmen will teach them how to herd sheep from an early age. If we put sheepdogs in a place where there are no sheep, and there are no parents or herders, they will probably not be able to herd sheep.

Tip:

There are also some talented sheepdogs. They have the gene for shepherding from birth, and they can shepherd sheep with just a little guidance.
