Just another puppy book,
By
This review is from: Boston Terriers (Paperback)
As many others have found, it is difficult to find a book on Boston Terriers that is truly breed specific. Take away the photos of the Bostons and the short history, description and grooming of the breed and the book could have been written for any dog in general. In fact, there were actually more photos of products than of the dog itself. I have also found that there are basic puppy raising books that are better than this one just for the general information. I am afraid I would not recommend this book to anyone.

Not at all breed specific,
By A Customer
This review is from: Boston Terriers (Paperback)
I would have to agree with the previous reviewer, jewelybabe. Aside from a quick section on the Boston Terrier's history and great pictures, this book is not at all breed specific. The book is so general and provides no insight into the specific health problems and grooming needs of the Boston. Do not buy this book. Luckily, I could return this book for Scottee Meade's "An Owner's Guide to a Happy Healthy Pet: The Boston Terrier." I rated Scottee Meade's book a four-star book!

A Mediocre Book on General Dog Care,
By John Wood (San Miguel de Allende, Gto., Mexico) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Boston Terriers (Paperback)
The highlight of this book is all the pictures of Boston Terriers--I can look at them all day long! But except for the text on the history of the breed, the bulk of the book gives non-breed-specific advice on raising dogs. No mention here of issues specific to Bostons--genetic defects, diseases like demodectic mange, how to raise a "terrible terrier." It contains little useful information for someone faced with six pounds of energetic puppy, expecting you to have all the answers.But then, there are all those darn cute pictures...
