It's when your Border Collie is out there moving sheep without your say-so, just taking them from one side of the field to another to amuse himself. The trouble with this is it puts the sheep into a panic and they begin to run, which can cause them to step into a hole and break a leg, or crowd each other so closely that lambs are injured.

If you collie is especially out of control, he'll be taking bites out of their ears and drawing blood. If you've ever been out in the field with styptic powder trying to stop the bleeding on the ear of a frightened sheep, you know how irritating that is.

Your collie should only take the sheep where you want them, and should lie down and watch them when he's done with the task.
