A must for those who love animals... Jun 04, 2009
I first met Myrna Shiboleth when she brought me my rough collie (Tiffany of Netiv ha Ayit) to Athens,participating at the same time in a dog show.Since then,I had always wanted to know more about this low profile lady and the chance was given to me through this book.I wouldn't have imagined how determined,courageous,knowledgeable,open minded,successful and experienced she is in animal and life affairs if I hadn't read it.Her contribution to the amelioration of life of people with special needs by breeding appropriate collies is something superb.Also,her successful efforts to save the pure Cannan dog from extinction is of great value.Myrna Shiboleth is an example of valor,showing to us what can be achieved if we really believe in our vision.
This book is a "must" for breeders,behaviorists and animal lovers and a great companion for all people who want to enjoy their free time through real facts and adventures that will touch their feelings.
Thank you for "sharing" your amazing life with us I hope that you will continue with a "Tails of Sha'ar Hagai" 2.

A Great Book! May 14, 2009
Tails of Sha'ar Hagai is a must read. Myrna is an inspiration and entertains the reader with all her adventures. I have bought copies for friends and family and they have all enjoyed the book too!

I met Myrna about a year ago in Shaar Hagai, during my inquiries about getting a service dog for my son with a Disability. This was after my husband came to see her and was so impressed and told me I HAVE to see her. Such love for animals! Such wealth of knowledge!!! Consequently we bought a Smooth Collie from her which is now being trained by Yariv, who is mentioned in the book. While waiting in Australia for the dog to be trained, I read her book. Besides being funny, the book is giving a true picture of Israel with lots of love too (being 17(!) years without electricity because of bureaucracy of Israel made me mad over here, but you take things in their stride!) But more of all the book let me know you better, such a personality!! Such determination! Such love and care for the animals! Even I am starting to look forward of having Spot here and starting to think positively about animals!! Now are own adventure of having a care dog for Eran is more in context and for sure I can appreciate it much more!
Thanks so much for writing the book,

 Hard to put down Mar 23, 2009
"A Wild Life with Wildlife" is an accurate subtitle for this book. Imagine sitting down with a cup of tea in the afternoon to listen to Myrna Shiboleth tell of her life adventures. It seems that you've hardly gotten started when you realize that it's the middle of the night, and through her stories you have traveled around the world and back, laughed, cried, and learned a great deal about humanity's relationship with dogs and other wildlife. The perfect book for the armchair traveler, dog lover or no.
great book Feb 03, 2009
I totally enjoyed this book and I think most people who love animals will too. I have been to Sha'ar Hagai and loved reading about how Myrna and others restored the property and built a successful life there. I see others have written really good reviews and I can't really add more except that I do recommend reading this book.
