Book:

'ROUGH COLLIES OF DISTINCTION' - by Iris Combe, Dareen Bridge and Pat Hutchinson (published 2001)

This coffee-table, hard-backed book, is a tribute to those British Collies, their breeders and owners who have exerted influence over the breed's global development. Presented as a unique pictorial record Rough Collies of Distinction traces the evolution of the Rough Collie, from the nineteenth century rough-coated farm dog to the instantly recognisable breed that we all admire.

The contents have been compiled by breed enthusiasts Iris Combe, author, collie historian, and international Championship Show judge of Rough, Smooth and Border Collies; Pat Hutchinson, breeder, exhibitor and international Championship Show judge of Rough Collies; and breed archivist Dareen Bridge who has produced the principal male and female blood lines charts which form an integral part of this book.

Price:  £12.00 + postage (RRP: £25.00 + postage)
