Hello,  My name is Jeanne Joy Hartnagle-Taylor.  I come from a ranching family 
who are probably best known for raising and training Australian Shepherds.  

I'm currently working on a book, The Herding Dog Bible, The Ultimate Stockdog 
Guide for Herding Dogs (or similar title).  

I want to include breed profiles that represent each breed from a working 
standpoint. In order to do that I am inviting input from the people who actually 
work them on livestock. 

I will include topics such as: genetic disorders known in the breed that 
may interfere or partially interfere with the dog's ability to function as a 
working dog, development as a herding dog, working style (eye -- degree of), 
trainability, coat type and care, etc.  

Anyone interested in contributing their observations on Farm Collies you can e-
mail me at [log in to unmask]  Please just include Farm Collie in the 
Subject line.  

Kind Regards,
Jeanne Joy
