2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, January 14, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: A New Owner's Guide to Scottish Terriers (Hardcover)

There is a tremendous amount of information in this book that's generic and could apply to any dog breed. I was looking for information specific to the Scottie and was largely disappointed. When I got to the page where the authors talk about when your dog gets to 55 lbs. size, my attention waned -- Scotties are around 20 lbs. full grown! In large portions of the book, you could change the title and pictures, and you would be reading about any dog breed. The book also appeared to be somewhat of an 'infomercial.' It's disappointing in a book of this nature when one is directed to pet products by brand name, which I think challenges the credibility and impartiality of the authors.

This book is perfect for the beginning scottie owner, too. Not just the show person. It gives wonderful basic information on what to expect from living with a scottie.

The book provides tremendous incite into the Scottish Terrier thanks to the years Miriam Stamm has spent as a breeder, owner and handler of Scotties. In fact, her kennel, Amstamm, is one of the most important breeding kennels in our country for furthering and protecting the breed.
If you own, are interested in or about to acquire a Scottish terrier buy this book.You will not be disappointed.

This is a special book reflective of the Scottie as a special breed!
