Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

At last, a book about your pet that emphasizes total care, training and companionship! You'll not only learn about the specie-specific traits of your special pet, you'll also learn what the world's like from your pet's perspective; how to feed, groom and keep your pet healthy; and how to enjoy your pet through training and activities you can do together. The Bichon Frise is written by a breed expert and includes a special chapter on training by Dr. Ian Dunbar, internationally renowned animal behaviorist, and chapters on getting active with your dog by long-time Dog Fancy magazine columnist Bardi McLennan. Best of all, the book is filled with info-packed sidebars and fun facts to make caring for your pet easy and enjoyable.

Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2000
This book was a great resource to us for the care of our dog, Bam, and to understanding the unique characteristics of the Bichon. We've owned a Bichon for years and still learned much from this book. I recommend it to anyone who is getting or already has a Bichon.

very good condition
Reviewed in the United States on July 6, 2005
This book has a lot of great information on Bichons. Unfortunately the last few chapters about health, nutrition, and training were abouut dogs in general and not focused on the specific needs of a Bichon Frise.

5.0 out of 5 stars easy read, very informative
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 18, 2008
I liked this book as it was not technical, explanations were clear and the information was what I was looking for as someone wanting to get this breed of dog for my family. The chapters were clearly titled and sub titled so I was able to easily look up any specific information i needed. You could tell it was written by owners of this type of dog - it was clear to see the love they had for these little dogs however - to it's advantage - it did also point out potential problems and issues you may have including quirky personality traits and cost/time of grooming giving you an idea and sense of responsibility you would have.
