Border Collie owners working stock - don't miss this one! June 8, 2001 14 out of 14 found this review helpful
If you own and work (or plan to work) stock dogs then you'll want to own this book. I borrowed this book many years ago and now that I am getting back into working stockdogs I just ordered it for myself! The book takes you through choosing and raising a puppy, step-by-step training from start to finish, and trialing. The book is mostly geared towards Border Collies working sheep but most of the same techniques can be used with other breeds. If you have another breed working cattle may want to look into purchasing Scott Lithgow's "Training and Working Dogs for Quiet Confident Control of Stock".
A must read for the person who wants to learn to trial November 20, 1999 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
Glyn Jones,a top Border Collie handler gives his insights about working as a team with your Border collie on the trial field. He also explains how to train your dog and how to become a team. This book goes into detail from choosing your dog, training you dog in all the stages to trialing. A top book with lots of pictures, diagrams and great explanations.
