1.0 out of 5 stars
Essentially I have read all of this elsewhere,
By Tom McKiernan (Atlantic Highlands, New Jersey United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Essential Australian Shepherd (Essential (Howell)) (Paperback)
This is about the best book on the subject I have read with one exception. I would have given FIVE stars except for something about the title and content;I have read most all of it before VERBATIM. This book seems to have a different cover photo,a softcover vs.hardcover,different publication date,authored by "editors" vs. a specific person,and two seemingly separate publishers than The Australian Shepherd:How To Keep A HAppy Healthy Pet. This is the "revised" edition. It would have been nice to know that this more current{by two years!} edition was ESSENTIALLY the same book I already purchased! Why change the cover? Anyway,caveat emptor. I recommend the public library or the internet as additional sources of information contained in this book{s}. Got me this time.

Its OK,
By josie (Iowa) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Essential Australian Shepherd (Essential (Howell)) (Paperback)
The book does give a good quick overview for a new owner or someone considering the breed. I did find some useful information, some good training tips and the price was good for its content. I was looking for a bit more specific information, mainly on how much to feed this breed, which I did not find. This would be the type of book to check out from a library rather than a home resource.

This review is from: The Essential Australian Shepherd (Essential (Howell)) (Paperback)
This is a quick book to read, but although small has a lot of information packed into. Throught the streamlining of the book, the author and editors managed to also make it readable in a format that flows quickly. Great for potential owners of Aussies that do not have a lot of time to sit and read a longer or less readable book.

By TripleBar (Utah County, Ut) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Essential Australian Shepherd (Essential (Howell)) (Paperback)
This book is just a generic dog book with very little information on the Aussie.

This review is from: The Essential Australian Shepherd (Essential (Howell)) (Paperback)
Nothing really special about australian shepherds in here. A lot of general information about dogs.

This review is from: The Essential Australian Shepherd (Essential (Howell)) (Paperback)
A great book for all the Aussie Shepherd lovers like me. Has everything from washing your dog to telling you if teaching your dog to heel is right.
