January 29, 2001. A cold, Highland County, winter day. Donald and I take a late morning walk through the pastures and down by the Cowpasture River with three border collies and an Irish Water Spaniel on her first trip to the farm. Later, as we approach the house and a group of sheep, we meet Ruth, short for Ruthless, the large wooly, white dog who protects sheep from coyotes. After a tuna sandwich lunch, we sit down for our conversation in McCaig's book-lined study where he writes every morning. With a few guests due to arrive for dinner, "Doc" McCaig is cooking a free range turkey and potatoes. He is as exacting about the cooking as he is about the details of his plots. The hand-held timer beeped periodically during our talk. Often he paused in response to my questions; his responses were thoughtful and never evasive.

Jack Russell Terrier
Small terrier dog breed
Dog breed
The Jack Russell Terrier is a British breed of small terrier. It is principally white-bodied and smooth-, rough- or broken-coated, and can be any colour.
It derives from dogs bred and used for fox-hunting in North Devon in the early nineteenth century by a country parson, Jack Russell – for whom the breed is named – and has similar origins to the modern Fox Terrier. Though closely similar, it is a distinct and different breed from the Parson Russell Terrier.[3]
Jack Russells are an energetic breed that rely on a high level of exercise and stimulation. It has gone through several changes over the years, corresponding to different use and breed standards set by kennel clubs. Recognition by kennel clubs for the Jack Russell breed has been opposed by the breed's parent societies – which resulted in the breeding and recognition of the Parson Russell terrier. Jack Russells have appeared many times in film, television, and print – with several historical dogs of note.
