Definitely the highlight of my trip in Ireland! We watched the sheep dog demo which is amazing and so magical! It's like putting a remote control on the sheep!🤣 Loved Rax and Jess🐶. We had a chance to hold Jess's newly born puppies and they are so cute and fragile! The owner answered any questions we have and he is so knowledgable and friendly! We didn't get a chance to see sheep shearing but I think that's because it's almost pass the season (website says July ~ Sept). There were also no baby lambs because obviously Sept is not spring. But I'm very satisfied with the whole experience and would definitely recommend it! I would also recommend to buy the tickets online in advance and arrive early to avoid missing the demo!

Wish I could give more than 5 stars. This was a highlight of our trip to Ireland. We saw an absolute marvel sheepdog demonstration on a working sheep farm. The farmer/trainer was highly personable and full of information. The working relationship between “Holly” and he was nothing short of impressive. Holly was very excited to show us what she could do, and rightfully so! After the demo, we got the opportunity to help feed the lambs, who were adorable. Plenty of great info, eyes into the culture, and fun photo and video opportunities. This is great for all ages. Very cost efficient as well. We called ahead to make sure there was space and then bought tickets when we arrived.

“Perfect experience of the west of Ireland & great for kids!”One of the best things we did in Ireland....honestly!The farmer was very down to earth and relaxed and seemed good with people. The dog is very intelligent and amazing to watch at work. Views are stunning and we got the best family photo (with sheep dog 'Sweep') looking down between the mountains and across the gorgeous water inlet. The kids loved wearing gumboots and walking sticks given and they loved the walk up the hill to see the magnificent views. All in all, great value and a lovely way to ...

We stopped by Killary Sheep Farm on a day tour of Connemara and Galway. I had never seen sheep herded before and it was amazing to see how the dog could follow commands spoken (not shouted) about 300 meters away! It was also really cool to see how peat (turf) is harvested and get to touch the moss that decomposes into peat over the eons.Tom the farmer was very friendly and provides raincoats, wellies (boots) and walking sticks - all very helpful on a blustery winter day!I highly recommend visiting here, no matter the weather.Visited December 2013

When you think of a trip to Ireland, visiting a sheep farm may not be on your list of experiences, but it should be! Tom and his dog Roy put on quite a show in rounding up sheep scattered across the landscape. After watching how they work, hike up to experience a true Irish peat bog and learn what goes into creating fuel in a land with few trees. We loved it!

This was actually really fun. You watch the sheep dog round up the sheep over a beautiful meadow overlooking the water. Then there is a fun shearing demonstration in which you get to participate. On top of all that you feed the little lambs milk out of bottles. Wonderful fun.

We had never visited a sheep farm before so my wife and I attended a morning session at Killary Sheep Farm. As the road doesn't support large buses there were no large tour groups which allows the group tour to be smaller and much easier to hear our guide as well as ask questions. The guide was outstanding and it was great to see how he and the sheep herding dog worked as a team. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience which included watching the dogs round up the sheep, shearing and the toddlers/kids loved feeding the lambs with milk. Highly recommended not just for kids but adults too, quite educational and interesting. Also unbelievable scenery. Will definetly return when back in Mayo.

We happened to come by this place on our drive back to the B&B and I am so glad we did. Tom was excellent and gave us a great experience. I got to bottle feed a 7 day old baby lamb and it made my whole weekend! 😊 Also amazing to see Holly rounding up all the sheep and learning about her, it was very enjoyable. Also the views were fantastic from where we were watching. Thanks for the experience and photos Tom! 😀Also unbelievable scenery. Will definetly return when back in Mayo.

We truly enjoyed our experience with Tom & his dog Ruck! Tom took the time to accommodate our off-season visit, and the sheep herding show in the scenic Killary fjord was one of a kind! Ruck was definitely the star of the show and we were so impressed! Must-do tour!
