Me & Milo: The Challenge and Reward of Life with My Rescue Dog

Approximately 16,600 words long. 'Me & Milo' is the story of Milo the Australian Cattle Dog (or Blue Heeler), a rescue dog who captured the heart of author Alistair Walton. Having grown up with dogs as a part of his family, Alistair later emigrated from the United Kingdom to Australia where he fell in love with Dingos, the native Australian dogs, and their partial relatives, Australian Cattle Dogs.
