DO BORDER COLLIES DREAM OF SHEEP? is the story of how the wolf became the dog and how the dog became our very best friend. It's about two working dogs, how they were born on a farm and how one stayed to become a stock dog like her mother, her grandmother and all her ancestors before her. And it's about the other pup who was chosen to be a service dog and left the small farm where she was born to be with her human partner 24/7 and ride in taxies, go to restaurants and navigate the crowded streets of one of the busiest cities in the world. This is the unique story of how two pups grew up and into their jobs, became very different, and yet stayed very much the same.

Carol Lea Benjamin and Denise Wall have written a beautiful, fascinating book; a book that does full honor to all dogs." ~Best-selling author, Donald McCaig
