Product Description
The publisher believes that this book is *** "a first of its kind in the modern era." *** After extensive research back until the early 1900's he was unable to find a memoir written by a breed founder. The Shiloh Shepherd Story narrates with candor and frankness the story of how the Shiloh Shepherd dog came to be a living reality. Few of us have any real conception of what is involved in the birth of a new dog breed, or the difficulties and setbacks that seem necessarily to go along with the process. Tina Barber's tenacity in pursuit of her vision, her refusal to give up in the face of adversity, make up the elements of an inspiring real-life drama of triumph through faith, in her God, in herself, in her dream, in her dogs. This book is probably unlike any dog book you have ever read: rip-roaring, gripping, exciting a spiritual and canine thriller! Endorsed by the Oak Ridge Boys, foreward by Fred Lanting, renowned GSD expert, and J. Jeffrey Bragg of the Seppellas project. 194 p. Includes a 4 page color photo insert with over an additional 90 photo's. Breed Standard Illustrations by Linda Shaw,MBA *** Perfect Bound, Case: 80# Gloss Coated, Text: 60# Euro Art Silk ***.

5 out of 5 stars The Shiloh Shepherd Story:gainst the Wind--A Breed is Born   December 29, 2008
I LOVED the book!! It is a cherished keepsake! Reading it I hung on EVERY word. I am the Proud owner of 4 Shilohs (3 have gone up to Rainbow Bridge)and love them as if they were my own children. Tina has done an amazing job against insurmountable odds and she has given us a most incredible breed!!! I have to admit that the book is a little extra special to me because my dog Starr (Bright Starr of Better Ways) is mentioned in it as well as her dad Lazarus and her mom Mona's Lisa of Better Ways and her mate King Zeus. The pictures are great too! I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to research this breed to see just what goes into creating a fine animal.

Certainly Tina has had a very interesting life. But I was looking for a book that was more about Shiloh Shepherds. Not the life of Tina and her ups and downs. I feel that Tina has shared too much personal about her life in this book distracting the reader. We need a book about Shiloh Shepherds that is less political and states the facts. Let the reader decide for themselves. Tina has enough web pages to read through of her other stuff. I am very thankful to Tina for developing this breed. I owe her a huge debt of gratitude. I have owned GSDs, Pembroke Corgis and currently have two amazing Shiloh Shepherds. I will never live without a Shiloh in my life again. This is my opinion only.

If you owned or knew one of the old time German Shepherds of the 1960's this is the book that will reintroduce you to these wonderful dogs of yesterday. Excellent history of the development of this breed. Do not be confused by others that call their dogs Shiloh Shepherds, make sure you are dealing with the original breed founder!
Excellent and very informative. Loved It!

I strongly recommend this book to dog lovers who have been disheartened by the dishonesty and greed that is an all too common part of the experience when dealing with breeders. This book will re-awaken your faith in humankind and provide you with the assurance that there is still a breed of dog out there that is the intelligent and gentle hero that you have read about in story books, an ISSR Shiloh Shepherd. I bought my first ISSR Shiloh a few months ago and had her shipped to me from New York to Oklahoma. This dog is everything that was described to me and more. It was not until after I had my dog that I bought the book, now I understand that truely great things are not created without a vision and an incredible amount of sacrifice, determination and faith. Read the book, but don't be surprised if your next purchase is a Shiloh Shepherd.

I own an ISSR Shiloh Shepherd. I loved reading about the history and all the blood, sweat and tears that have gone into developing the Shiloh Shepherd! I am truly inspired by Tina Barber's strength and perseverance.

I definitely recommend reading this book! It is a very helpful tool to learn the truth about the Real Shiloh Shepherd and the breed founder.
