This review is from: The Essential Cocker Spaniel (Howell Book House's Essential) (Paperback)

The Essential Cocker Spaniel is a great handbook giving specifics about the beloved Cocker Spaniel. Prior to owning a cocker any potential ower MUST read this book cover to cover. It is wonderful for reference after acquiring this wonderful breed of dog.

Photography in this book is fabulous. Winter and Churchill did their usual outstanding job.

2.0 out of 5 stars Very General, April 9, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: The Essential Cocker Spaniel (Howell Book House's Essential) (Paperback)

This book provides very little specifics for the Cocker Spaniel breed. It's more of a training guide for raising a puppy. Save your money and buy a book more geared towards the Cocker Spaniel as a breed.
