 Lessons from a Sheep Dog March 20, 2006

Be sure to get this little book to go with "A shepherd looks at psalm 23". It will open you eyes to your relationship with our good shepherd and it may put you to shame as to how willing are you to follow His call.

Did you know that not all things have to be taught by people? In Lessons from a Sheep Dog By Phillip Keller you will learn things from sheep dogs you thought could only be taught by people.
Lass, a non well trained sheep dog, teaches the farmer about discipline, trust, and love. Although Lass wasn't trained the farmer learned that he needs to show Lass who is in charge. Also he learns that if he doesn't trust Lass then Lass will just be stuck as a puppy forever. Then love because Lass was more then a sheep dog she was the farmers best friend. This story was told in the narrator point of view. The author kind of wrote in a creative way because he didn't straight up tell that Lass was teaching the farmer about life but you could still tell that that is what the author was trying to get through our brains. This story takes place on a farm. One connection I made was "I like this character because he knows how to show Lass who is boss."
This book was pretty good and I would recommend this novel to people who like dog books. This book was also exciting and loving.

Snappy title and beautiful picture on the cover!
I bought this book form my granddaughter so that she could read a story about Sheep Dogs. Instead I find it is nothing more than a book about infiltration and imposition.
I think books also should have a rating system to prevent people from wasting their money. G, PG, R, X, XXX, and, "JJJ," for jesus freak literature.

Charming, Thought Provoking, But Slightly Repetitive March 13, 2004
29 out of 29 found this review helpful
When Phillip Keller established a sheep ranch in Canada he soon realized he would require a sheep dog--and fate brought him to Lass, an abused Border Collie with a fierce and stubborn disposition. Clearly there was much for Lass to learn! But there was also a great deal for Keller to learn, and in his work with Lass, Keller sees his own spiritual journey reflected.In many respects this is a charming, unpretentious, and often thought provoking book, filled with memorable phrases and insights. Even so, and in spite of its brevity (it runs less than less one hundred small pages), it is surprisingly repetitive; Keller essentially gives the complete history of Lass in the first two chapters, a fact that leaves no room for the reader to be surprised by his later reflections. Still, I recommend it--particularly for the Christian dog-lover in your life. GFT, Amazon Reviewer
