Publisher's Summary

Lad, a handsome collie, rules the Place for his master and mistress. With his sleek mate, Lady, at his side, he chases away neighborhood dogs and intruders. But one day, when the master brings home a spirited young male, Lady starts to spend all her time running with the newcomer. Will Lad be able to win back her loyalty? For Lad, the excitement is just beginning. Throughout this classic story, he faces one thrilling adventure after the other. A poisonous snake, the police, and hostile city streets are only a few of his challenges.

Albert Payson Terhune first recounted his own dog’s exploits in a series of short stories for magazines. When readers of all ages praised Lad, Terhune collected the tales into the heartwarming volume that has captivated young readers for over 70 years. With John McDonough’s skillful narration, Lad, his furry friends and foes, and the humans in his life spring vividly to life.

A blast from my childhood.

This trailblazing story of Lad, a thoroughbred collie in body and soul.

I read these books a dozen times when I was a little girl and I was delighted to devour this classic again as an adult - weeks after purchasing my dream dog - a sable collie, just like Sunnybank Laddie.

Narrator John McDonough was the icing on the cake. A rich, timeless voice, perfect to read this classic tale. Full of class and character without the camp.

I’ll have this on again and again.
