The Sheep Dog Building -Tirau

The Sheep Dog Building in Tirau is one of the town's iconic and quirky roadside attractions, located right next to the famous Sheep Building.

This unique structure is shaped like a giant sheepdog, with a distinctive face and ears made out of corrugated iron, reflecting Tirau's reputation as the "Corrugated Capital of the World."

The Sheep Dog Building houses the Tirau i-SITE Visitor Information Centre, providing travelers with helpful local tips, maps, and guidance on nearby attractions.

Tirau’s creative use of corrugated iron for public art and buildings has made it a must-see stop on the drive between Auckland and Rotorua, and the Sheep Dog Building is a fun, photo-worthy landmark that captures the town’s playful spirit.
