5.0 out of 5 stars MY CHIHUAHUA BIBLE, July 9, 2002
This review is from: Chihuahuas: Everything about Purchase, Care, Nutrition, Breeding, Behavior, and Training (Barron's Complete Pet Owner's Manuals) (Paperback)
I RAISE AND BREED AKC CHIHUAHUAS. I HAVE LOVED THEM AND OWNED THEM SINCE I WAS A CHILD. THEY ARE MY BABIES AND MY PRIDE AND JOY. I TRY TO KEEP MY NEW OWNERS AS KNOWLEDGABLE AS POSSIBLE
WITH THEIR NEW PETS. THIS BOOK IS LIKE A BIBLE TO ME. I TELL EVERYONE WHO BUYS A CHIHUAHUA FROM ME TO PURCHASE THIS BOOK. IT HAS SO MUCH HELPFUL AND INFORMATIVE INFORMATION. NOT ONLY AS A BREEDER, DO I ENJOY THE BOOK, BUT, I STILL USE IT TO LOOK UP CERTAIN THINGS THAT I MIGHT HAVE FORGOTTEN. I THINK ALL NEW CHIHUAHUA OWNERS SHOULD HAVE THIS BOOK!

5.0 out of 5 stars A very comprehensive Chihuahua book!, December 18, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Chihuahuas: Everything about Purchase, Care, Nutrition, Breeding, Behavior, and Training (Barron's Complete Pet Owner's Manuals) (Paperback)
This book was great. Unlike many other books, this helpful guide dealt with chihuahua's specifically, instead of a general dog guide. It tells of everything u need to know to raise a healthy chihuahua. I find it essential!

4.0 out of 5 stars Best chihuahua book I have bought., September 1, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Chihuahuas: Everything about Purchase, Care, Nutrition, Breeding, Behavior, and Training (Barron's Complete Pet Owner's Manuals) (Paperback)
I purchases 3 other books along with this one and was disapointed in all the others. This book has information for all levels of dog owners and specific details that the other books left out. A great resource for chihuahua information.
