Old Drumble is no ordinary sheep dog. As his master, Andy the Drover, tells it - he'd had some pretty amazing adventures. Like the time he persuaded a frightened mob of sheep to cross a flooded river ... on a tightrope. Or the time he had to get Old Nosy, Andy's horse, out of a tree. Each week over one long hot summer, a small boy is amazed by the stories Andy has to tell about his four - footed mate, the smartest, cunningest, cleverest sheep dog there ever was ...
