5.0 out of 5 stars I found the book to be informative and accurate., February 26, 1999

By A Customer

I have been reseaching Jack Russell Terriers through many different sources. I found this book to be very accurate regarding information I have been able to gather, validating previously gathered information. The book also contains quite a bit of information about the different aspects of owning a Jack Russell (i.e. choosing, feeding, training, temperament, and breed standards). I am sure I will refer to this book often. It is easy to read with many pictures. I loved it.

Doesn't really help you unless you really know nothing about jack russels and don't need it solely for making girls gawk at pictures at cute puppies...

1.0 out of 5 stars Dissapointed, June 18, 2003

By	Frank (Naples, FL) - See all my reviews

This book reads like a VCR manual and does not offer anymore information that you could not get online. Do yourself a favor and do a quick search online and save your money.
