Herding puppies

So, we've parted with three of our pups now- 3 still left, if you're interested in a fantastic bird dog to take with you on your search for pheasant/chukar/grouse. Anyway, Sunday morning Jared let Cali and the 4 remaining pups out in the backyard together [they've been separated from her so they'll be weaned]. Next thing I know, he's calling me over to the window, to watch Cali herd the puppies into their kennel. Then she jumped on top of the kennel to guard them. They would try to escape, and she'd herd them back inside. I think she's going to fire us as babysitters :), she noticed there were some missing...
