I like the WESTERN STORY cover. I bet every trail drive had dogs to warn against rustlers or indians, not to mention rattlesnakes.
ReplyDeleteI don't know if they used cattle dogs for herding in the west, though sheep dogs were definitely used. My copy of The old-time cowhand, by Ramon F. Adams, doesn't mention it. This might have been a hunting dog, perhaps a retriever.
ReplyDeleteFlorida, though, had cowboys using herd dogs. Article here talks about it.
