A sheepdog trial – also herding event, stock dog trial or simply dog trial — is a competition or test of the working abilities of herding dogs. Such trials were held in the 1860s in New Zealand, and by the 1870s regular trials were also being held in Australia and in the United Kingdom; by the end of the twentieth century the sport had spread to many countries of the world.
