He's won a few first places at these kind of things. I'm sure it's because of the sad back story and the missing eye. We think he's a handsome little fella though

That is one seriously good and serious looking beast. Bet it will grow up to be a great dog.Kya, our Azores Cattle Dog (or Cão Fila de São Miguel, in Portugese). Had to drive almost 1,000 miles to pick her up, but worth every inch. My wife is working on training up to herd sheep, like her older "brother".

On TV, I don't recall ever seeing herding of sheep by anything other than border collies. Is that stereotypical view (shepherding = border collie) peculiarly British? (One Man and His Dog, and so on.)
The last dog I had, a German Shepherd, seemed to run intuitively in a sort of figure-of-eight around my bicycle. I imagined that it was a herding instinct.
Wow check out those ears. He looks like he has bear ears. That is one cool looking dog.
That may be simply a result of your location and the breeds available. Our herding instructor has worked with lots of breeds including German Shepherds.
We get a lot of comments on those ears, from her looking like a bear to a hyena.
