Collie Psychology
Inside The Border Collie Mind

This is the most comprehensive single book ever published on the breed, offering a new insight into how the Collie thinks and reacts, and how to fine-tune his marvellous mind.

The book contains a complete guide to every aspect of owning a Border Collie, including basic and advanced training, and health care. Section Two is composed of an extensive A-Z advice section designed to tackle training and behavioural issues, working with the breed specific characteristics that make Border Collies so special.

Carol Price is a canine behaviourist, trainer and journalist with a lifetime’s experience of living and working with Border Collies.

She is also the founder of the Collieology Facebook group, which has many thousands of followers.

PRAISE FOR COLLIE PSYCHOLOGY

“I’ve not personally met Carol Price, but I can tell you right from the onset that this lady knows her Border Collies inside out if her book ‘Collie Psychology…Inside the Border Collie Mind’ is anything to go by. I have been extremely impressed by her knowledge and understanding of the breed and if I am to be disappointed about anything, then it is that it wasn’t me that wrote the book…it is that good and I congratulate her!”
Roy Goutte, researcher, author and collator of ancestral data on the bloodlines of the Border Collie

Carol Price gives us the most comprehensive insight into the life and mind of the beautiful Border Collie. Every Border Collie owner or aspiring owner should be compelled to read this intelligent and minutely-detailed encyclopedia of this outstanding breed. A thoroughly good read and so well researched.
Clarissa A Baldwin, OBE, Chief Executive, Dog Trust

‘This comprehensive book provides a thought-provoking insight into an often misunderstood breed.’
Ben Wilkes, Border Collie Trust of Great Britain
