5.0 out of 5 stars
This is a great little book.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Cairn Terriers (Barron's Complete Pet Owner's Manuals) (Paperback)
This book is geared towards the ownership and care of Cairn Terriers. It covers all the bases and doesn't generalize to all breeds of dogs, unlike some breed books. The section on grooming is especially helpful.

Excellent little book; maybe the only Carin book you need.,
This review is from: Cairn Terriers (Barron's Complete Pet Owner's Manuals) (Paperback)
Lots of info in a very compact, readable format. Covers most of what the new Cairn owner would want to know. Maybe the only Cairn book you will need...but probably not the only one you will want. Excellent photos.
