Product Description
The Border Collie was specially bred as a hardy work dog on the farm or ranch, and it also makes a fine pet. But it becomes unhappy unless it has lots of space for roaming. Covers such questions as Is the dog appropriate for an owner who merely wants a companionable house pet? Is it an active animal that needs vigorous daily exercise? Is it good with kids? Will it make a reliable guard dog? Is it unusually susceptible to health problems? This book offers an in-depth look at the special characteristics and needs of the Border Collie. Full-color photos and eye-catching sidebar features throughout the book.

A good start July 17, 2008
Miss B
Basic book with nice little stories about particular Border Collies. Touches on broad topics without going into detail. I decided to return this book because I wanted more specific information.

If I were to write this book, I'd title it "Coping With a Border Collie", but the book was pretty much on target as I read the book at work. You have to know one or own one to understand. My Border Collie is more like a "borderline disorder" Collie, along with the herding and devotion to family, it has a mind of its own. This is a great book to read and own, really enjoyed stories from actual owners.
