This is a good reference book, tailored well to Australian Shepherds.
The table of cotents is pretty well organized. Binding is a lay-open cookbook style with hard front and back covers. it seems very durable. Photos are really outstanding and sprinkled throughout, illustrating the dog doing whatis being covered in that particular part of the book.

The Layout is quite varied, using bulets, tables, checklists, bold topic headers and colored boxes with tips.

There is a CD included but it covers geneeric training, nothing specific to this breed.

I would like to have found a few first person stories from owners aboout their individual dogs lives.

All in all, I found the book a very good reference. (
