4.0 out of 5 stars A Good Book, February 18, 2008

By 

Greg Ashe "Gordon Setters" (Kildare,Ireland) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Gordon Setters KW-172 (Hardcover)

This is truely a splendid book for the Gordon Setter owner/fancier.
This book was published 18 years ago and it brings a tear to my eye knowing that all of the beautiful setters pictured have passed on.
They have gone to a better place.

About the book:
This is an informative book about the breed,it is easy reading rather than boring.This book is loaded with with many well-taken pictures.

Topics covered are;
1:History and description of the breed
2:Standard of the gordon
3:Grooming
4:Field Training
5:Selecting your dog
6:The New Family Member
7:Feeding Requirements
8:Housebreaking and Training
9:Behaviour Modification
10:Health Care
11:Preventative Dental Care
12:Breeding
13:Dogs and the Law

The fist third/half of the book is about Gordons and the second half generalizes about Dogs,a good book nonetheless.

Hope I helped.
