We're pleased to announce the forthcoming release of a brand new title: Dogs of the Shepherds - a review of the Pastoral Breeds. This new book by David Hancock is a reflective view of the pastoral dogs' contribution to the working & companion dog scene. Painstakingly researched and packed with information, this book is a searching examination of their past, their performance and their prospects in an increasingly urban society.
The author of twelve previous books on dogs and with over 750 articles published in national and international magazines, Colonel David Hancock MBE has studied dogs for over half a century in more than twenty countries. In 2009 he won the annual award of the Dog Writers' Association of America, having been a runner-up two years earlier. His last book, on Hounds, was widely acclaimed. He owned Border Collies for over thirty years and was responsible for a Rare Breeds farm for over a decade, wrote articles for country magazines and has advised TV production companies on recent documentaries on dogs. He was a contributor to the Bateson Report, an inquiry into pedigree dog breeding in the UK.
This fascinating new hardback book will be available in August and is available for pre-order TODAY for £25.00 (+postage). Go to http://www.oldpond.com/dogs-of-the-shepherds-a-review-of-the-pastoral-breeds.html or telephone us with your order to ensure you get a copy as soon as it is available.
