This review is from: Basset Hounds (KW Dog) (Paperback)

This book is amazing. It is a must for Basset lovers worldwide. It has very nice photography work that is complemented by the detailed text. The author included many helpful ideas for your dog. It teaches how to breed them, how to care for them, and last but not least, how to love them. I would reccomend it to almost anyone who is interested in dogs in general or just Basset Hounds. As I Basset lover,I learned many new facts about my favorite breed, and I'm sure you would achieve the same.

This review is from: Basset Hounds (KW Dog) (Paperback)

This is a book that has a chapter on the Breed itself. Great Pictures of Bassets. And then it is a general dog Information Book.

I was looking for a Book that would be much more specific about Basset Hounds and not a product catalog.

This review is from: Basset Hounds (KW Dog) (Paperback)

I got the 1995 edition of this when I got my Basset. I enjoyed the MANY photos of Bassets, but was disappointed that most of the book appears to be a generic insert that fits in ANY general dog book complete with lots of advertisements for miscellaneous dog stuff. It looks like there is a fill in the blank form used to create the books where you type in a few breed-specific details and lots of photos and -- presto! -- a new book.

Less than 30 pages (of 224) are specific to Bassets.
