Hear about the family's beloved pedigree sheep, their dairy enterprise as well as about his work 'on the road' as an AI technician. We hear how essential the Border Collie breed of dog is to farming in this landscape. We also discuss the contentious legislation issues surrounding burning hill areas and why it is a cause of frustration to those grazing it. We also chat GAA, the advent of online marts, farming in a pandemic and why you will always find him ''with a good dog at my side''.
