West Kerry Sheep Dog Demonstrations, Camp

The BEST part of our Ireland trip! Bridget and Shamus were amazing and so welcoming to us on their beautiful 300+ year old property. Truly an amazing cultural experience, I don’t think you can get any closer to the culture than this. The sheep dogs were so impressive. There is something so amazing about being in nature and around animals like this that is made this stop so special to me, not to mention we were surround by mountains to one side and the Atlantic Ocean on the other. If you are ever in Kerry County your trip is not a trip until you stop here- this is a must do!! Shout out to Mark at Connect the Dots tour for taking us here!

Visiting the West Kerry Sheep Dog Demonstration was definitely one of my favorite things my family did on our tour of Ireland. We had truly been looking forward to it for months, and I have to say, it completely lived up to our expectations! Bridget and Seamus were so welcoming, and they gave us an awesome glimpse into all things herding sheep and the ins-and-outs of sheep dog competitions. If you’re looking for a unique, non-touristy excursion on your trip to Ireland (and you want to bottle feed a baby lamb!!), you’ve got to head over to West Kerry Sheep Dog Demonstration🐑🐏
