3.0 out of 5 stars The Brussels Griffon : An Owner's Guide to a Happy Healthy P, May 18, 2000
This review is from: The Brussels Griffon: An Owner's Guide to a Happy Healthy Pet (Hardcover)
It's a nice book, well printed with good pictures. Has good basic info about the Griffons. I get dissapionted with the training section. This section is for general dogs, not special for the Griffons. I think if you want general info (you don't know anyhing)about this dog you can by the book, but if you look just how you train your Griffon or want very deep info, don't buy it.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not a good book., July 6, 2005
By 
Abby Raffles (NJ United States) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)   
This review is from: The Brussels Griffon: An Owner's Guide to a Happy Healthy Pet (Hardcover)
This book will do very little to help you understand the Brussels Griffon. There are only a few pages about Griffs. The rest is about any kind of dog, and Griffs are not like other dogs. They have many unusual traits. Save your money and buy a book that is really about Griffs. The only one I know of is Doone Raynham's.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Photos and Descriptions of a Great Breed, June 1, 2004
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Brussels Griffon: An Owner's Guide to a Happy Healthy Pet (Hardcover)
I thought this book was a wonderful guide to the breed; the last 1/2 of the book consists of standard guidelines applicable to any breed. The first half has beautiful pictures of representatives of the breed and gives forth knowledge of their specific personalities. I especially love the dog on the cover of the book.
