I bought and read this book prior to acquiring my first Tibetan Terrier. You could not possibly find nicer photograph. The pictures really jump out of the book. The background on how Tibetans came to England and then America was interesting and just thorough enough not to lose a person new to the breed. The only major criticism I have is that I felt more breeders' and owners' voices should have been included. This is a wonderful breed of dog with many quirks. I would like to have read more about more people's impressions.

The photography in the book is great. I also liked the history on the breed. I was, however, disappointed by the minimal information in the book about the breed's temperment, personality and the pluses and minuses of the breed. I was yearning for more information about this. The second half of the book is devoted to the typical puppy information that was very generic and has been written about in almost every dog book I've read. Anne, next time give us more!!

I have read this book because I am looking for a Tibetan Terrier. I did lots of research, and read many books, but this one was the best. I found in all the other books that they were a little generic, and didn't give good advice, or was a little out dated. I found this book very simple to read, and I read it in one day. It gives terrific advice on the do's and don'ts of the Tibetan Terrier. The pictures are terrific, but I found the information even more fantastic.

I found the book easy to read with loads of great photos of TT's. The first few chapters on the description, origin, living with a TT and Grooming a TT were great. The large section on TT's in the US was irrelevant to me since I am from Australia and I was dissappointed in the last few chapters because they were very generic and packed full with advertisments for a particular companies products.

Still I think it is a good read for anyone considering obtaining a TT for the first time.

This book is very descriptive and has a lot of good ideas on trainig your dog! I would recomend it to anyone who needs more info on this dog.

This book tells more about the history of the breed than the care and what to except when you adopt a TT. I really wanted to know more about the nature and personality and how to care for them. So I was disappointed. A breeder recommended Tibetian Terrier by Jane Reif. I may try that book.

Its a very good book for new commers also for other breeds but not for breeders. Why are not included the opinions of other breeders? It hase also commercial announcements I don¨t like that.
