Ok I just got off the phone with Mr. Perry. It seems there will be a second book that is just now being published and will be out soon. His 2 daughters were the ones that took his stories and put them together on a computer for the editor and publishing company. Well when that happenedthe girls lost about 30 of the stories...
These 30 stories have since been recovered and with a good few more added to them. The editor on this 2nd book is much more involved and has made Mr. perry go back and write alot more and constantly asking him questions. If you read the first book alot of it is written as a journal would be. Short or incomplete sentences and so on. This 2nd book has been put together in a much more organized fashion and grammatical sense. Everyone thinks it's a much better improvement on the first in that sense.
Also in the 2nd book there is a dog pedigree tree going back as far as he can remember with owner names attached to each dog and so on. He told me it would be in in a few weeks. It's called A Diamond In the Rough ... Cowboying Around. It'll be carried in most book stores like Hastings and such as his first is or you can contact him and he will mail you a copy out. Can't wait for this 2nd book to get here. Together the 2 will provide a great bit of history to the working dogs around this area
Big O: I spoke with him about Big Boy and he knew the other dog in the 70's.. We got off subject before I could find out if it was out of the original or not
