This is a wonderful book for people who know nothing of the breed and wish to learn, or for those who know the breed deeply, and just want to read about it. I own an Eskie, and it described him perfectly! I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book.

In one of the previous reviews, it said this book doesn't cover teething and such. But it does! It covers teething, digging, housebreaking, training, breeding and much more! What you need before the purchase and how to pick a show dog! I highly suggest this book if you plan on, or already have, an American Eskimo Dog.

If you have an American Eskimo, if you're thinking about getting one, buy this book! The text is understandable and written by someone who must know Eskies!!!

Since getting my little guy, I've learned a lot and most of it came from this book!!!

This is the book I chose to give to one of my younger eskielovers. It's a great book for all ages, but the way it's written seems quicker and easier to comprehend and relate to. .....

This Barron booklet is a comprehensive manual for all matters involving Eskies. It's a travel through the life of an Eskie, from choosing a breeder to having them bred. It covers the temperment, abilities, nature and behaviors of this breed. It answers questions and offers further resources for more specific info. It's the "bible" we use for our Eskie, Shasta. And yes, you're shown some cute pictures of adorable Eskie puppies!

This was my first Eskie book and it's a great introduction to the breed. I read it cover to cover several times. Read and heed. It's even got some funny "comments" as I call them and they will make you laugh when you realize that your eskies really are like that! Great reading.

A must reading for anyone who owns an American Eskimo. These are very special dogs! I also recommend the true story of Princess as told in "Good Morning, Miss Prin" - a heartwarming story of an American Eskimo who suffered longlasting damage from abuse, and found a loving and secure home with two special people.

Unless you have never owned a dog, do not buy this book. It is a good "dog" book but it does not focus on the breed. Its all the common sense training, feeding, grooming, etc that a dog owner would already know.

If you have never owned a dog, this is a good training aid

this book was ok. i was hoping for more information, such as stages the puppy will go through. i never had a dog before this one, so i needed more information on things like teething, and other stages of life. the book was helpful though concerning some things like digging.
