The Farmer’s Dog

‘It can be said at once that this book should be on the shelf of every farmer and shepherd who owns a dog or who is contemplating the purchase of one. Mr Holmes really gets behind the mind of the dog and what makes it tick . That is why his advice is so sound.’ - Farmer and Stockbreeder

‘John Holmes has picked out the essentials and backed them up with clear reasons with an enviable skill… No better book could be recommended to a farmer, old or young, who wishes to train working dogs for use with stock.’ - Journal of Farmers’ Club

‘Though The Farmer’s Dog is essentially intended for the bookshelves of the farmer, or working-dog owner, there is much to interest all lovers of dogs in its pages … extremely well illustrated.’ - Dog World

‘He has an understanding of dogs which has hardly been surpassed in the written word and if you are at heart a dog-lover you will enjoy and profit from every chapter.’ - Farming News
