Pippin (Pip)

Herding Dog

Pippin the black and white McNab stock dog.

Pip is a McNab Dog also known as McNab Shepherd, or McNab Collie.  McNabs are a California stock dog breed developed by Alexander McNab in Mendocino County, California in the 1800's. 

Pip was born in July, 2023.  He is the first stock dog I have trained myself without the assistance of a trainer. 

McNabs are short-haired, tough dogs bred for the rough country of Mendocino with its dry, hot climate.  Pip is progressing nicely in his training and is a fine addition to our dog team.
