I wouldn't be too quick to dismiss GravDigr's suggestion.

Even the best sheep dogs get tired and need a rest.
If this anon poster was my sheep dog, I'd make him a cosy bed on the porch where he could lie in the sun and bark to let me know when a car is coming up the drive. Dunno how to translate that back out of metaphor, though, but he's earned it.
