3.0 out of 5 stars The Guide to Owning a Labrador Retriever, June 24, 2000
By "bjeffress" (Indianapolis, IN) - See all my reviews
This book provides the basics on Labrador Retrievers. If you are new to the breed this is a very helpful book. It does provide enough information to get you started with a new puppy and a new breed. If you are looking for very detailed instructions on training and retrieving this book really doesn't go into enough detail.

2.0 out of 5 stars Guide to Owning a Labrador Retriever, February 23, 2000
By A Customer
This book was informative on the basics, but did not go into a lot of depth on any one topic. I bought it because I was researching the breed, but I feel I need to buy additional material in order to answer my questions, since I plan on being a new parent to a pup.

4.0 out of 5 stars Helpfull information, wide coverage, excelent ilustrations, December 29, 1998
By A Customer
This is the first book I read on this breed, it is has lots of helpfull information, covering various aspects of the dog, including puppy care, training, health, breed standard, and more. I found it very interesting to read plus it has got very good ilustrations, prime photographs let you see how the dog looks in different situations. Without doubt I recommend it, however it does not go in much detail in some areas, as it only has 64 pages.
