2.0 out of 5 stars
Interesting but not necessarily relevant,
By
This review is from: Australian Barkers and Biters (A Vintage Dog Books Breed Classic - Australian Cattle Dog) (Paperback)
While I have not read this book cover to cover, I can say that it gives an interesting perspective on dogs of Australia, including history and personal opinions of the author. That was not, however, what I was looking for in this book. I was looking for breed characteristics, behavior issues, and generalities of the breed. The title is also deceiving. I was looking for a book on the Australian Cattle Dog, and only one chapter is devoted to this dog. In that one chapter, most of the commentary is on herding and training the dog to herd. Overall I would say that it is a nice novelty book, but it doesn't give any really important or current information that a cattle dog owner would enjoy.

Great if you like breed histories,
By
This review is from: Australian Barkers and Biters (A Vintage Dog Books Breed Classic - Australian Cattle Dog) (Hardcover)
I bought this book specifically because I love Australia, Australian dog breeds, and breed lineages and histories. This book covers a broad spectrum of dogs throughout Oz, and is written in fine detail
and with charm. |
