Born in Newark, New Jersey, Terhune achieved literary fame through his engrossing tales that often centered around the heroics of his beloved collies. His deep affection for these animals was reflected through his Sunnybank estate in Wayne, New Jersey, which became the real-world inspiration for many of his stories, including his most notable work, 'Lad: A Dog' (1919). 'Lad of Sunnybank' (1929), part of the Lad series, continued to illustrate the exploits and character of Terhune's real-life collie, Lad, bringing animal narratives to a passionate audience.
