Pet Owners Guide to the Border Terrier.
This book is by Betty Judge and was written in 1999. Betty knows loads about Border Terriers and bred lots of my great-great-great, great-great and great grandparents! How about that?The inside flap of my book describes it thus;
The Border Terrier, an active intelligent dog, with an affectionate, easy-going personality, has become one of the most popular of the terrier breeds. This superbly illustrated guide is an indispensable handbook for the caring owner. Learn all about choosing a puppy, basic obedience training, grooming and coat care, exercise and diet, and healthcare. Author Betty Judge has owned Border Terriers for more than 25 years. She has bred many Champions and she is an international Championship judge of the breed.

Border Terrier and Butterfly..
I have this print by Bridget Olerenshaw hanging over my bed-crate. It was made in the 1960's and illustrated Border Terriers in a book about dogs.Bridget, who lost her fight against cancer on 30th October 1989, was one of the top canine artists in the country. She began specialising in canine portraits in 1958 , Border Terriers being one of the breeds she painted. She was commissioned by Country Life to paint the front covers for several Crufts editions of their magazine; had illustrated editions of Country Life Book of Dogs, and had completed commissions for many well-known firms. As well as local galleries in her own area, exhibitions of Bridget's work were also seen at Crufts and at the Tryon Gallery in London.

Me and my old muckers...
... this is me and Betty Parr when we were little pups. Not bad looking, Eh?I'm the really cute one, by the way! :-)
Do you mind?
Went walking miles today.Right along the promenade to Rossall...
....on the way back bumped into Betty from Parr's farm. She was my litter pal. We had a great run around.... I raced her.
Later on we walked around the Mount.
It has been a lovely day for dogs!
