Sniffing Down the Right Trail September 26, 2007
1 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is a pleasant, quick read including an index about the care and background of the beagle. A lively, intelligent little hound, the beagle is beautifully featured in some really good photographs.
If pet owners wish to go so far as to paste their hound's picture in the book, it gives you a place to do so. While that seems a bit much to me, it is nice that the option exists for others.
I like the list of resources included at the end of the book.
 Only a handful of useful information June 26, 2003
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
After becoming frustrated with more generalized books like "Puppies for Dummies" and "The Latchkey Dog", we turned to this book looking for more information specific to the breed. It was kind of an impulse purchase - something we picked up at PetCo because it had the word "beagle" in the title. We did not find this book helpful.Most of the information contained within could apply to any breed. There were too few training tips and it seemed to gloss over a lot of the potentially negative aspects of the breed (over-excitablity, destructive tendancies). It was very much a beginners guide that only offered a handful of tips. Still, if you're looking to round out a collection of beagle resources, this is a complimentary offering. The pictures are nice and it's a brisk read. If you're looking for an encyclopedic resource or any insight into the temperment or habits of the breed, look eleswhere.

This slim book (95 pages, including index) is very modern and full of nice touches. Opening with a "Your Essential Beagle Information Sheet" complete with a spot to paste a picture of your Beagle and closing with a good summary of other Beagle and dog resources, The Essential Beagle is clearly illustrated and has many excellent Beagle photos.Chapters include Getting to Know Your Beagle, Health, Nutrition, Cleaning and more. Advice throughout is well written and concise. The Essential Beagle is a favorite around our home and should be especially appreciated by youngsters.
