The Great American Dog Show Game Hardcover – June 1, 2004

5.0 5.0 out of 5 stars 3 ratings

The author had long felt that lack of a good information program was severley hindering the "dog game." Looking back on his own thirty plus years in the fancy, he wondered how he had made it from a struggling novice, to journeyman exhibitor, to blase top-winning Specials owner, to the exalted ranks of dog show judging. He was well aware that it was NOT because of a well-thought-out plan. He finally concluded that it was only because he had been tenacious and has asked questions of everyone in sight that he had finally "arrived." In an effort to impart some of the knowledge he has gained, he has written this book. To make it easy to absorb, he has used levity and cartoons. But the subject matter is important. Read it and learn...but best of all enjoy it!

Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2023
An older book from an acknowledged expert in the dog show game -- breeding, showing, judging, and then publishing books in the genre. Al Grossman has a lovely style and shares a lot of pertinent information. Our of print, but worth looking for if you want a cogent reference for the time period.

An excellent book. Very knowledgeable and humorous at the same time.

Anyone involve in the dog show world will find this exceptionally fun and helpful - gives a funny take on what is involved in taking a showdog from litter to the top of the ladder.
