Adorable Basset Hound is Completely Unaware She is Herding Sheep

There’s no more unlikely sheep dog than Lady the Basset hound. She’s a natural at it but completely oblivious to the fact. Lady’s unsung talent recently came to the attention of her dad when they were out on his farm.

Michael Jobson, a mechanical engineer and part-time farmer from Gamlingay, England, accidentally discovered that his 3-year-old dog is a natural herder.

Michael’s small flock of sheep began to follow Lady across the field attending to her every move. Lady, being a hound, is much more curious about smelling the ground.

As Michael says in the funny video he shared, “This hilarious footage shows the oblivious dog wandering around in a field on multiple occasions, as dozens of sheep traipse after her, hanging on her every movement.”

We seriously doubt that Lady will take up the mantle of sheep dog like her Border Collie cousins any time soon, but on this occasion “that will do!”
