This book lists and describes over 500 breeds from around the world. Abundantly illustrated with color drawings and photos. Includes a short forward on what criteria you should consider in choosing a breed. If you're on a budget, thisis one of the better books on canine breeds.

If you ever wanted to know about dogs or the history of dog breeds, this is the definitive book that you should own. There is almost every breed of dog ever known and the descriptions will guide you if you are thinking about getting a dog, and if you just love them, it's for you!!

This book has the most dog breeds I have ever seen!! But not much information on the breeds. It's good if you are a beginner and would like to see what many of the dog breeds look like.

I really enjoyed reading this book. I've read it cover to cover many times! I always use it as a reference to learn something new about dogs. It also helped me to decide which breed of dog I should get (along with some other wonderful books). What an enlightening read! Although it could have provided more information and actual pictures (instead of drawings for some of the breeds), I still give it 5 stars!

We use this book constantly at our small animal shelter. Good photographs of breeds, and the breed key with each description helps people focus in on breeds they'd like to do further research on, and to drop from their list, the breeds that would not be suitable for their lifestyle. It's great for showing people what kind of personalities are blended together in that adorable mutt they are considering adopting from the shelter. The adoption helpers almost never put this one down while showing the dogs.

I first got a copy of this book in 1993, and it exposed me to so many other types of breeds I never knew existed. I eventually became a rare dog breeder, and attribute my initial exposure to Dogo Argentinos to this book. I'm on my second copy now. The only downside is that some of the breeds described are so rare that they had to provide drawn illustrations of the breed, and that's never as good as the actual pictures of a breed. However, the information for each breed is sufficient enough to provide the key traits of each breed, their overall behavior, and breed history. The book is thick like a compact dictionary, but small so it makes a great reference book. I just wish they published an updated version of this book because it's such a great resource.
