 Border Collies: Everything About Purchase, Care, Nutrition, Breeding, Behavior, and Training December 20, 2005
13 out of 13 found this review helpful
This is a great book for first time Border Collie owners. We adopted a dog identified only as a Collie mix from our local shelter. After attending a pet expo and encountering some Border rescue people they insisted he was definitely a Border. I started looking for some books about Borders and after reading this one it really became clear that we do have a Border! I really appreciated the facts of some of the idiosyncrasies of this breed such as how they are not big eaters and how they are such escape artists, something our dog definitely proved in the first days that we had him! While this book doesn't go into great detail on advanced training it is perfect for first time owners and gives a lot of great information.

A very complete and inexpensive book covering all aspects of Border Collies.I did not follow all the suggestions for purchasing a Border Collie and paid the price.
A Nice Book on Border Collies June 27, 2002
19 out of 19 found this review helpful
Overall, I would say that this book is good, but nothing special. It does have good information on the Border Collie and their history as well as awesome pictures and illustrations. However, the book is mainly made up of general information on training, dog sports, nutrition, health, and breeding which could be found in many other books. I would have liked to see more specific information pertaining to the breed itself and/or herding.

The information in this book was very helpful. It is simple to understand and gives you the up front techniques that a person needs to train a BC. I would recommend this book to any first owners of this breed. They are wonderful dogs and deserve the best care possible.
