Herding, Sorting, Leading Wand

Once you begin using wands to herd and sort animals, you will not believe you could have done it without them. Wands not only extend your reach but also don’t frighten the animals. In a very short time, the animals understand that the way you use the wands is, in fact, a language. They begin to understand where you want them to go, and they go! Using wands when you sort animals means that the animals respond to the signals you give with the wands and aren’t simply jumping away from your outstretched arms.

Using the wands for herding and sorting sets the stage for using them as leading signals. You can teach your animals not to run past you and help them learn where you want them to stand. Leading with wands is an excellent way to teach your animal the skills he or she needs for the show ring. Try a wand you won’t ever want to be without!  The herding and leading wand is the same high-quality, made-in-the-USA wand, but it does not include the clip attachment. Buy one of each style, and you will have two wands for herding and sorting, one for use with the catch rope and one for specialized leading.
