Past...

English Shepherds have been bred for generations as all-purpose, working farm dogs. Their responsibilities have ranged from herding and protecting stock, to dispatching vermin, to guarding the home and watching over children. Other breeds are selected to excel at one or two of these tasks; an English Shepherd should be competent in all.
