Living with Border Collies Sykes Barbara
Esteemed Border Collie trainer, consultant and authority on the breed, Barbara Sykes, has lived with Border Collies all of her life and has spent the last fifty years training, trialling and rescuing hundreds of dogs. Part One of the book takes you on a journey that began over 200 years ago at the birth of the breed up to the present day. In her sixth book, she explores how Border Collies have been adopted into the family home and how to get the most from your pet dog, without diminishing the unique spirit that attracted you to the breed in the first place.
Part Two then explores simple strategies and techniques to balance those instincts within a domestic setting, whilst still having fun with your dog and creating a strong partnership. Understanding the history of Border Collies, why they were bred and why they are so diverse, is the key to understanding and managing their instincts.
