This is the story of Gray Dawn, a collie who lived at Terhune’s Sunnybank kennels and who likes to do things his own way. Initially believing Gray Dawn to be a hopeless case, the Master plans to sell the dog to another breeder despite his wife’s protestations. But, after enacting a deed of great courage, Gray Dawn is spared at the last moment and wins the affection and respect of his master. A wonderfully heart-warming tale, this book will not disappoint fans of Terhune’s delightful fiction and constitutes a must-have for any dog-lover. Albert Payson Terhune (1872 – 1942) was an American journalist, author, dog breeder, most famous for his books detailing the adventures of a collie named Lad. This book was originally published 1927 and is republished here with a new prefatory biography of the author.
