image of the book dogs by Ray Coppinger, a book abour canine behaviour, canine origin, and how to train your dog

Definitely the best book I've ever read on dog origins and behaviour by Ray Coppinger. Ray has a unique view on his subject matter gained from many years of research with a wide range of dog breeds.

Well worth the read!

APOLLO owned by GLENDA PLOG.
Apollo lives now with Glenda in QLD, Australia. He was bred by Katrina Jeffery (was Sommers), and his owner died when he was 18 months old. He had been kept as a pet until then and was tried as a sheep guardian without success. Glenda then 'rescued' him for retraining which has been a long but now successful process.
In the last photo he is with his mother Narky.
