The Collie of Castle Hill

On Christmas Eve 1954, Carl's wish comes true when his father brings the collie pup, Lucky, home to Castle Hill Farm. "The Collie of Castle Hill" is the story of Carl and Lucky's adventures, the loving bond between a boy and his dog, and the event that led to Carl Maier's life-long commitment to bringing dogs and people together for companionship and comfort. The text and illustrations are based on events that took place in the mid-fifties, as told to author/illustrator C. R. Carter by Carl Maier. Due to the fact that the only witness to the fishing incident has long since passed away, the story is presented as a work of fiction.Christine Reilly Carter is the author of 'The Collie of Castle Hill', published 2002 under ISBN 9780971796409 and ISBN 0971796408.
