Beautiful book

This is such a sweet, beautiful book about Collies. It explains their temperament and how to train them. It also has a section on breeding them. In particular, there is an illustration of a mother Collie with her puppies with the caption, "every time the mother returns to the box, she will count the puppies with her nose." So sweet. Like the breed it is about.

A wonderful Collie book!!

I thought this book was great. It was packed with a whole lot of information for such a tiny book. I would recommend this book for anyone who has a collie!! It has everything.. from grooming to little specifics about the breed. This is definately one of the best books to have as part of any dog manual collection!!

A must read for new Collie owners

As a previous dog owner, but new to the Collie breed, I found this book very helpful. Collies are just "different" from other dogs, and their care and training has to be treated as such. Information included in this book was a huge help to me as a new collie owner. If you've never had a collie before and are thinking of adding one to your family, buy this book.

Collies are cool

this is a pretty good book. I learned a lot from it. It really helps you learn about collies before you get one. I wouldn't have known how to take care of my collie if i wouldn't have read the book. It's a good buy and if you want a collie you should buy this book. It will help a lot.
