Just cannot thank you enough
“…I still carry your book in my bag and most days I will flick through different chapters and it’s amazing how things spring into your head when a mistake is made I ask myself “what would Tully say”. I just cannot thank you enough for a book that can be read by the most experienced handler or the complete novice like me and learn.
A mate of mine has a copy and often we find ourselves asking questions when something goes wrong, we always refer back to the “Tully bible”. I hope I am not bothering you but just want you to know what your book has done to us.”

THE book I’ve been needing for years…my BOOK OF BOOKS!
Finally I’ve found THE book I’ve been needing for years! I am really starting to understand in detail what herding instinct and ability really means, how sheep behave as a group of prey animals, and how to think about sheepdog training and especially breeding. This remains my BOOK OF BOOKS in my brand new shepherd’s life!
Learn what natural instincts a good herding dog should have
This book will teach you all the traits a dog should have without being trained. It will let you be able to pick a pup from a litter that has a good temperament. I give this book a five star rating.

Anyone serious about breeding and/or training better dogs must get this book.
A treasure of great information.
You won’t regret buying this book.
A seminal book on the subject
Man’s best friend can also be one of man’s best workers. “Working Sheep Dogs: A Practical Guide to Breeding, Training, and Handling” is a comprehensive handbook to raising and training one’s sheep dogs to serve their tasks. Covering every aspect of raising and educating a dog in terms that one doesn’t need to be a veterinarian to understand, “Working Sheep Dogs” is a seminal book on the subject.
Just cannot thank you enough
Hi Tully, I purchased your book just prior to picking up my Kelpie, she is now just over 2 years old.
I work in the city and to this day I still carry your book in my bag and most days I will flick through different chapters and it’s amazing how things spring into your head when a mistake is made I ask myself “what would Tully say”. I just cannot thank you enough for a book that can be read by the most experienced handler or the complete novice like me and learn.
This book should be like pedigree papers and given to everybody to read it as there is real information in that book that will help regardless of your experience. A mate of mine has a copy and often we find ourselves asking questions when something goes wrong, we always refer back to the “Tully bible”. I hope I am not bothering you but just want you to know what your book has done to us.”
