5.0 out of 5 stars All a casual Sheltie owner needs to know, May 24, 1999

By A Customer

This is a great book, because the author explains in layman's terms all that is needed to raise a happy, healthy and obedient Sheltie. It focuses on important things such as grooming and training and has a special section on how to deal with household jealousy. Everything you need to know as a casual pet owner.

This is a great little book with lots of pertinent info on Shelties. The training tips are helpful and written in a language that is easy to understand and informative. It also guides you through the purchase and care of a new puppy.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is a great book, August 13, 2000

By	"sheltie20" (usa) - See all my reviews

I don't have a sheltie, but I'm planning on getting one. I have 3 books about this breed, and this one is the best. It's written really well, and easy to understand. The author of this book tells a lot about this breed and where it came from. It tells how to groom your dog, train it, feed it, what kinds of toys and other important things are the best quality, and a lot more. This book also, tells you everything you want to know before buying a sheltie. A lot of people ask themselfs questions like, "Should I buy a female or a male?", or "Should I buy a puppy or an adult?", well this book will help you answering these questions for sure. I think this book is really worth the money it costs, that's why I gave it 5 stars.
