According to Wikipedia, a network effect is the phenomenon by which the value or utility a user derives from a good or service depends on the number of users of compatible products. I don't know much about that, but what I do know is hearing from and being around lots of stockdog people is much better than fewer. Welcome to Farm Dog.

Ep. 22: The Sarplaninac - globe trotting LGD that's as tough as its name

The podcast about the working dogs of farming, ranching, homesteading, and rural living. Presented by Goats On The Go® and hosted by its founder, Aaron Steele.

We discuss the fascinating history and current practice of humans working with dogs to make a living from the land. Our chats with experts cover breeds, training, on-farm experiences, and more. Herding dogs (stockdogs) and livestock guardian dogs are frequent topics, but terriers, hunting dogs, and good ol' all-around farm dogs are up for discussion, too. If it produces, protects, or provides for our rural lives, we'll talk about it.
