Shepherd toby jug designed by Gabriel Fourmaintraux and produced by Desvres circa 1930. A shepherd or sheepherder is a person who tends, herds, feeds, or guards flocks of sheep. Shepherding is one of the world's oldest occupations, it exists in all parts of the globe, and it is an important part of pastoralist animal husbandry. This Shepherd is holding an shepherd's crook in his right arm.
