My border collie tries to herd my two kids all the time, especially if I'm yelling at them to do something (yelling because I've asked nicely several times with no response.)
I have a silky terrier that does this. And if we have guests over he starts barking and won’t shut up until they leave. When he decides it’s bed time it is bed time.
The dog in question has more of a curly coat so we keep him in a puppy cut year round even at his advanced senior age (14). Any longer and it starts to lock even with daily brushing and then he chews on himself. So no but only because of the short cut.
I also have a Maltese/Silky Terrier mix and his hair is much longer as he got the silky straight hair type. And we don’t daily brush him either. It doesn’t mat and actually looks fairly decent on its own but we do brush him out every few days or so.
And they are adorable little dogs - terriers through and through but like cute little teddy bears.
