"Herding Dogs: Progressive Training" is the only book of its kind
to guide the owner toward training the complete herding dog.
Whether you are involved in farming or ranching, or simply want to
explore your herding dog's heritage, you will find a wealth of
information here. For those with competitive goals, Herding Dogs
will enhance your knowledge with a philosophy that has the dog's
individual breed and personality as the central focus.
Vergil S. Holland teaches the handler to understand the dog's
reactions before beginning this progressive training. Whether it is
your dog's first exposure to stock or your older dog with a new
problem, you, as a handler, will find solutions to each problem and
sound advice on each phase of training.
Special chapters on different personalities of the various
herding breeds, with training modifications tailored to these
differences, make it possible for you and your dog as a team to
reach your maximum potential.
Herding commands and terms are thoroughly covered, as are those
of basic Obedience for the stock dog. Working various kinds of
stock-sheep, cattle and ducks-is covered to meet the needs of every
stock dog owner. Detailed diagrams and concept maps throughout the
book highlight the individualized training methods for each type of
dog and stock.
