A farmer has acknowledged that the whistles and yells givem to sheep dogs is just random shit.
'The dogs know the job' said Farmer Ken Groin.
'They are trained from birth to heard the sheep. But people find it hard to accept they are that clever.'
'So we shout a load of bollocks at them when anyone is around. It all sounds roughly the same as we agreed on the patterns of bollocks when the BBC commissioned One Man and His Dog.'
'I tried it on my wife in the bedroom once. I still have a dull ache in my left teste to this day.'
