This book is a brand-new title, and perhaps the only extended documentation of the history, standard, care, feeding, training and breeding of these fine dogs. It is because of the intelligence of this gifted and talented dog a special understanding of his merits is required to best appreciate the nature of this lovable shepherd. His quiet gentle ways, his love of children, his devotion to master and mistress call for a unique indulgence in order to better comprehend all of the classic qualities of this most empathetically centered companion.
