When Dr. Vanderlip wrote The Collie—A Veterinary Reference for the Professional Breeder, she had no idea it would be such a success. Only a limited number of books were produced and they sold out quickly. Numerous requests for the book still arrive weekly, unfortunately the requests cannot be filled because the book has been out of print for almost twenty years. The Collie - A Veterinary Reference for the Professional Breeder is now a precious collector's item. Used copies sell for ten times their original purchase price!

A lot has happened in the Collie world since Dr. Vanderlip's first Collie book was written, so she decided to write a brand new Collie book and make it even better. The Collie Compendium is a complete, concise book about the Collie breed. It includes all the topics covered in The Collie - A Veterinary Reference for the Professional Breeder and much more. The information is current and expanded and the photographs and illustrations are beautiful and new. And, of course, the useful coat color inheritance charts are included. Anticipated release date 2009!!!
