One of the best...,
By
This review is from: Norfolk Terrier (Comprehensive Owner's Guide) (Hardcover)
There are only two, maybe three interesting books about this beautiful breed, Norfolk Terrier. However, in my opinion this one is the best one. This book is an example of very comprehensive owner's guide, where you can find everything what you need to know about your newly purchased little household member. So, you can read general information concerning history, characteristic and breed standard for Norfolk Terrier. Moreover, inside the book you can find very useful information about your puppy and its proper care. There are also very good and concise chapters about training, healthcare and of course showing your "mischievous youngster" :-).I find only one minus of this book. There is no so much information about Norfolk Terrier stripping using stripping knife or standard, by hand method, but I forgive it because I know that it is very difficult to explain this complicated action in one, short book chapter. It takes owner's skill and experience. I still do not know how to do it correctly :-) Summarise, I encourage you to buy this well written book. I suppose you will not be disappointed.

A Fine Book on Norfolks,
By
This review is from: Norfolk Terrier (Comprehensive Owner's Guide) (Hardcover)
Having recently purchased our first Norfolk Terrier, my wife and I have really appreciated this comprehensive owner's guide. It is a great book for both new and experienced owners as well as for anyone thinking about buying one of these adorable little rascals. We have both read it several times and keep it handy for quick reference on raising puppies, training, health issues, etc. My only criticism is that having done a fair amount of research on Norfolks and having met several breeders, I have found a few errors in the book that, although not crucial to the contents, should be corrected in any future editions. For example in the chapter on showing, the owner of "Jimmy Dean" and "Andi" in the photos on pages 140, 141, 142, and 143 should be listed as Laurie Rossi Sherick, not Ann Clayton. Ann is the photographer who took these great shots, and I'm sure Laurie wouldn't mind being recognized as the person who put in all the hard work to train and show these wonderful champions. But even though this Kennel Club Book may need a bit more careful editing, it is fun to read, full of useful information, and highly recommended.

Top Canine,

This review is from: Norfolk Terrier (Comprehensive Owner's Guide) (Hardcover)
My daughters and I will be adding a Norfolk Terrier to our family. In anticipation of our new family member, I purchased this very helpful book. Goldfish are the only pets I've ever cared for. So, I am extremely happy with my book because it gives enough informative information without feeling overwhelmed. And, it is extremely well organized.
