We are going to get our first puppy over the next two weeks and right now I am reading everything I can find about the breed. I am a first time dog owner and I did not even know what a slicker brush was! So, the book could've had more pictures, especially in the areas of grooming and training.
If You Read Just One Book on Goldens... January 18, 2000
22 out of 23 found this review helpful
What a terrific book! It's the seventh guide to raising/training golden retrievers I've read, and I've learned more from it than from the other six combined. Helpful, useful, practical approaches and solutions on every single page. And what a fun, easy read -- I found myself sneaking "just one more page" after my allotted reading time was up. I'm about to read it a second time -- this time taking some notes about things I'll want to do daily/weekly when I get my golden pup. I'm also eager to read other works of this author. Her loving, respectful, practical approach to life with golden retrievers sets a wonderful model for anyone who wants to bring this terrific breed into his or her home. Don't miss this excellent book.

The author does have Golden Retrievers and seems to really love the breed of dog. I did find some useful information in it, but it didn't keep my interest like "Uncle Matty's" videos and books do. I have to force myself to read another chapter since I want to learn as much as I can before I get my Golden Retriever puppy next week.
A practical, informative, well researched and smart guide. October 24, 1999

The author presents a very thorough guide to canine pack behavior, proper obedience training, identifying problems and solutions, and providing responsible health care for golden retrievers. She provides practical information that can be used by novice as well as experienced golden owners. She obviously knows this breed very well. We've had two goldens in the past and will be getting a new pup soon. This book is a must for anyone who wants to understand and enjoy the raising of a golden retriever.
