Excellent Choice!,
This review is from: Guide Dogs: From Puppies to Partners (Paperback)
The making of guide dogs in Australia, from the breeding of puppies, through puppy raising, harness training, matching with a blind partner, and their eventual careers. It's unusual to find such a complete overview of the life of a guide dog! The information about breeding stock, and harness training is especially hard to find in other sources. The book also describes several successful guide dog teams. Beautiful photos do a great job of showing concepts discussed in the text. Although some training terms and tiny details differ, this information transfers well to guide dog programs in the U.S. The book is aimed at students, but would also make a quick and thurough primer for adults. Deserves a place in any library with a section about assistance dogs.
