Format: Paperback
i bought this book when i really couldn't afford it. that's how good i thought it was. the best info is on the pros and cons of each breed including health problems which a lot of breed specific books do not mention.

I've had several copies of this book throughout the years and i keep giving mine away and re-buying another. Great info, easy to read with quick charts, covering all concerns. Over the past 20+ years i've owned this book and owned or been involved with many dog breeds i can truly say that this book is accurate. Very Very Good! Buy with confidence.

Love the book even though it is dated because it no longer covers all the AKC breeds. Wish the publisher would make an updated version. Love the tables int he front that show you at a glance how much exercise, grooming a breed needs and whether they are city and kid friendly.

This is a great book and has plenty of information about the different dog breeds. We purchased this to research which dog would be right for our needs prior to adopting our family puppy.

If you show dogs or want to own a dog, don't be mistaken that nobody likes this book, even though the price is under ten cents! It is worth a lot more. Great show photos and photos, info on where it's suited, personality, appearance, health problems, care, puppies, comments, and reccomendations for the breed section, and a section on selecting a dog, care, and a glossary make this book right up there! I like the pictures and it is very organized, although it only has AKC recognized breeds. It is out of date, to-the Border Collie, Australain Shepherd, American Eskimo and Coonhounds are all the UKC breeds! It is great when choosing the right dog.
