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. Titles in this growing series are for inexperienced owners and prospective owners of a pedigreed dog. 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. . Now Comes with Bonus DVD at No Added Cost! The brand-new hour-long dog training instruction program is specially designed to help dog owners who have little or no experience in obedience training.
