Item description from seller

125pp that appear as crisp as the day they were printed, less than 500g to post. This valuable reference was first issued in 1964 & popularly reprinted in 1966 & '71. Mills (ed) has a lifetime's experience on garms & stations in New Zealand as well as in depth experience in dog trialling. McIntyre achieved unrivalled fame in breeding two distinct strains, a heading & a huntaway. McIntyre's dogs (50 over 53 years) were winners, winners & winners. Herbert was Senior Judge for the NZ Sheepdog Trial Assoc & in a forty year period won many championships. I hesitate to pun that this book has impeccable breeding. It is a book whose primary focus is the working farm dog, not the show ring medallist. A down-to-Earth book for the farmer who handles sheep & cattle and wants the best of the stock dogs. Subjects include training, handling, shedding, lambing, temperament etc. This fine statement sums it up > "Every statement, every word of advice has been tested on the anvil of experience . . . a classic textbook of farming practise at its best." Faults? dj has 1cm closed tear & side edgewear. Size: 22.5cm.…
