 First Dog: Unleashed in the Montana Capitol - $14.00
This award-winning and beautifully illustrated story is told from the point of view of Jag, the real-life Canine Special Assistant to the Governor of Montana. Written for children ages 6 to 12, First Dog is Jag's story of how a cow dog from a farm in Whitefish---the last pup in the litter---traveled to Helena and became the First Dog. Featuring fun and fascinating information about what a governor does and how Montana government works, First Dog teaches kids that government belongs to them---and shows them that one day they, too, could be sitting at the governor's desk.

|  Border Collies - $7.90
This book is the most acurate,informative book on Border Collies Ive ever seen and as I own Border Collies I find it excellent.
It tells you all you need to know from how to train/feed/raise a puppy, to breeding a litter of your own, how to show a Border Collie, Genetics, explaining everything in a clear easy to understand way.
I frequently delve into to my copy if I need to find something specific or just to go over a part again. I recommend it very highly to anyone who owns a Border Collie as you will enjoy it over and over again.
The author is speaking from many years experience and is very down to earth.
|  Ribbon the Border Collie - $10.00
Allison leaned over to pat her dog s head. Despite her disabilities . . . Ribbon is still the best Border Collie in Colorado, aren t you girl? No, she isn t, Katie said, shaking her head. Grinning, Katie paused dramatically. She s the best Border Collie in the whole world. Ribbon, a beautiful black and white Border Collie, loves to herd sheep, cattle, goats, and even the family cat. Her owner, Allison, feels Ribbon has special abilities that could make her the #1 champion herding dog in all of North America some day. That dream, however, abruptly ends when the dog is hit by a car and injured while trying to protect a herd of "weed-whacking" goats in the Colorado high country. When things seem bleakest, Allison's mother suggests to her devastated daughter that Ribbon has what it takes to become a Therapy Dog -- visiting patients in hospitals, rehab centers, and nursing homes to cheer them up and give them hope for the future. But Allison is unsure. Allison s mother then shares her favorite Erma Bombeck clipping with her daughter: When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left and could say, I used everything you gave me. Does this bit of wisdom convince Allison? Will Ribbon be able to change from herder to healer?
