3 out of 5 stars The Border Collie: An Owner's Guide to a Happy Healthy Pet   December 29, 2005
 4 out of 4 found this review helpful

This book was a bit of a disappointment as I was looking for some specific info on Border Collies and I felt as if any breed's name could have been substituted where they used the name Border Collie. As a general beginners book on dogs and dog training it was OK and would be worth a few bucks to buy it. Other than some nice photos of Border Collies it had nothing in it specific to this breed.

This bookis extremely helpful but sometimes confusing. It teaches you how ot train, groom and how much your breed needs in food maters. This book will definatly help new owners fighure out why there dog does what it does, and how to fix the situation

What a disappointment.

The majority of this book is about dogs in general. If you're looking for information specifically about the Border Collie breed, as I was, don't waste your money. You can get 90% of what was in this book by picking up any book on dogs, and you won't know any more about Border Collies than you did before you read it.





5 out of 5 stars This Book is Great   November 7, 1999

I first read this book when I checked it out of the library and I totaly loved it. I had checked books out before about other breeds, to find out which one would be the best for me, and all of the other books were so full of things that didn't understand that it made it hard to choose. But when I read this book, not only did I find out that the Boder Collie was the right dog for me, but I also was able to understand everyting the author was talking about. So if you're looking for a book that is easy to understnad and yet informative as well I would recomend this book, it's great!


5 out of 5 stars A really great border collie book   June 15, 1999

I found this book at my local library and, a big fan of border collies, was eager to check it out. I was pleased by the full-colored photos instead of black and white ones. The book provides true and top notch information, and the author reflects on her own experiences with border collies several times. There are chapters on feeding, grooming, training, behavior, and equipment. If you need a border collie book, get this one. It's the best one I've ever seen.
