Customer Reviews

An excellent reference for Border Collie owners.
As a Border Collie owner I found this book very informative and entertaining. The auther discussed all aspects of the Border Collies characteristics; herding,showing,obediance. He wrote about the origin of the dog,about breeding, some of the diseases they can get. I highly reccomend it to any Border Collie owner.

Read it!!
I bought this book because I am collecting my BC puppy in just over a week. I have some experience of BCs, but want to make sure that I fully understand my puppy's behaviour, and how best to train it. This book is brilliant. It is honest and informative. I now feel well prepared to start caring for my new puppy and I can't wait. I recommend that all BC puppy and adult dog owners, and definitely all prospective owners read this book.

The best border collie book I've ever read...
Even though I don't own a border collie, I want to someday, so that's why I bought this exceptional book. The information was excellent and clear, and this book had lots of color pictures and drawings . Because of this book I realized how much I didn't know about border collies, which was a lot. This book will make me a much better dog owner. I recommend this book to anyone who has a border collie or who wants one.
