From the beginning, Katz' new companion is a great herder of school buses, a scholar of refrigerator raiding, but a dud at herding sheep. Everything Katz attemps...obedience training, herding instruction, a new name, acupuncture, herb and alternative therapies helps...a little, but not enough and not for long. Like all border collies and many dogs, Orson needed work. I didn't realize for some time that I was the work Orson would find.
