Between all the books we've read about Golden's, The Book Of The Golden Retriever was more informative ,(in all areas), than all the other books combined. We purchased the book prior to buying our new golden puppy. The information on their characteristics could not have been any more " right on the money". It helped us purchase the perfect, loving dog. We also found relatives of hers in the book along with the kennels they originated. It was absolutely terrific being able to locate her ancestors and read when and how they became... Show Dogs.. Champions...Best Of Breed...etc. I recomend this book to anyone who is in hope of purchasing a Golden...You'll be happy you did!!!

This beautiful 'coffee table' book contains all the information essential to the golden owner, including a detailed history of the breed throughout the world, invaluable advice on every topic from breeding, selection and care of the puppy through conformation, obedience, grooming, and veterinary care. Also includes discussion of the most influential breeding kennels.

We are breeders. Loved the detailed history of the breed including info on the All-Time Great Dogs!

This book is mostly dedicated to provide a lot of information about the better kennels in the USA, selection of a nice pick for show, breed's standards and the several types of shows. It has a general information about vaccines, genetical diseases and care. If you are thinking into purchase a champion line puppy it has information to guide you to good kennels and champion generations. This book is more important for people who are in shows and competitions. In my opinion is a good book but only of this niche.
