In Sheep to Showbiz, you will follow Miste, a smart, plucky little Border Collie from an ancient barn on a sheep farm in Perthshire, Scotland, through her despair on the death of her first, beloved mistress to the Midwest of the United States. Discover, in her own voice, how she learned to love her second family and become a commercial model and therapy dog. Hear her relate decades of dog family history from the Wise Old Goat at the farm in Scotland and German Shepherd Dog, Rayne, the canine family historian in Missouri. You will take away an appreciation of a dog's learning, thinking, feeling, and serving.
