The author felt it worthwhile to create a record of some long
established, and successful breeders, attempting to capture in
their own words, their concerns and views when breeding. There are
interviews from the breed country of origin, France, vibrant with
hundreds of years of history, breed development, and continual
pedigrees. Rich with experience and knowledge, France remains an
undisputed resource, their experts respected worldwide. A few
interviews are with people who are French in origin but moved to
the USA and continued their involvement. The balance is with
breeders from the authors home country, the USA. She acknowledges
other countries with excellent breeders. She regrets she could not
include all the existing talent. This book, the author hopes will
be "a means to leave messages to future breeders, to communicate
through time and space, some valuable points." This book is meant
to contribute to the large task of breeding this fine, complex old
breed of working sheep dog. "No honest breeder will ever tell you
that the pup you buy from him is a sure winner. Neither will he
promise you an easy road to success. All he can ever give you is
the chance to learn and the admonition that having perseverence,
perspective and purpose, will give you a fifty-fifty chance." USA
breeder, Harold Marley, highly respected influential breeder of
Marha Briards, from 1964- died 1976
