Cinnamon brings Willie in a litte too close.....

Cinnamon redirects & gets them going again & is herding the young males as well as the cows. She is pushing Willie & Presley in a little closer.

Presley steps up & takes the lead. He is a fast learner & is positioned perfectly. The cows are headed straight towards the round pen.

Cinnamon allows Willie to take center stage & he is doing a wonderful job. Presley is observing.

Cinnamon's plan to move them closer together works. She knows that positioning herself sideways behind the cows allows her to weave back & forth driving them forward & keeping them in a herd.

All 3 dogs are in perfect position to move the cows forward toward the open gate to the round pen. Presley has learned that positioning his body sideways allows him to weave back & forth behind the cows driving them straight & keeping them in a herd.

....and the standoff begins. Presley doesn't want any part of this & moves away.

Cinnamon moving back & forth behind the cows. Presley & Willie moving in a little closer.

Cinnamon driving the cows forward. They need to turn a bit more left. Notice she accomplishes that in the next picture below, left.

Cinnamon gets a little too close & the cows start to separate. Cinnamon stops. Willie watches.

Cinnamon takes the lead & Willie observes.

Here, Cinnamon is driving from the left & Willie & Presley are again learning that simply lowering their heads & creeping along is pushing the cattle forward.
