Generations of careful breeding have produced the traits of stock-handling skills, loyalty, hardiness and courage that are now inherent in their bloodlines. This book has been written to assist those who use working dogs to handle livestock and provides a practical step-by-step guide to training them the natural way. Its authors, Michael Oliver and Tony Sheild, are both farmers with extensive shepherding and dog trialling experience. The final chapter on breeding and rearing healthy puppies, written by Marlborough vet and expert on canine reproduction, Peter Jerram, provides essential information on this fascinating topic. David Henshaw’s drawings of rural life will be known and loved by all country people. Here he has given us not only amusing cartoons in his inimitable fashion, but detailed instructional drawings.
