1.0 out of 5 stars Cookie Cutter Book - NOT one I recommend, March 28, 2005

This review is from: The New Owner's Guide to Bernese Mountain Dogs (Hardcover)

I bought this book in the hope that it could help a pet Bernese puppy buyer with good information.

When reading this book, I felt as if the writer just 'filled in the blanks' of some generic puppy buyer information. This book did not deliver anything I'd hoped for. I consider this book to be a waste of my money and time investment.

I feel there is a much better pet puppy buyer book on the market by Julia Crawford (a longtime Bernese breeder and prior BMDCA President) and the cost is about the same. This better book is called "Bernese Mountain Dog: An Owners Guide to a Happy, Healthy Pet".

I was very disappointed in this book by Amy Christensen. And I hope she'll try again and do a better job next time.

Extremely specific to the Bernese Mountain Dog, I will recommend this book to ALL Berner owners, breeders, and pet lovers. Explains everything and anything you would like to know about the Berner Breed from puppy to adults and also health, dental, travel as well as what to expect from the Berner.
Well detailed, and excellent photo's.

This book is written so well, the topics are what a new owner needs to know. There is a lot of information in this book, information about the puppies joint growth,their personalities, what to look for, what to expect.
Am very glad I purchased this book.
