What Sally says…
“This is the book that I wish I had when I was training Renn to herd.
I couldn’t see the way forward when I started positive herding, but you have an advantage that I didn’t have. This training manual lays out, with easy-to-follow instructions, the important steps you will take to transform your dog from a clueless pup to a competent, useful herder.”
