NASHVILLE, Tenn. (RFD-TV)— Farm dogs play an invaluable role on operations across the country, assisting with daily chores and providing loyal companionship. Among those who understand this better than most is Chad Collins, a professional Border Collie handler who has devoted his life to training these intelligent and hardworking dogs.
