Excellent source for those just entering the dog show gameFebruary 11, 1999 43 out of 45 found this review helpful
This is an excellent book for those that are thinking about showing their dogs and are wondering what is involved. Not only does the author explain what steps he took to get from novice owner to dog show judge, but also any questions that he had (and the answers he was given) and his own thoughts that he had along the way. For example, I finally figured out what a special was! This format is quite effective at helping the novice who may have the same type of questions that he had when he was starting out. Though he emphasizes one breed in particular, the information is equally applicable to all breeds.
Since it is a generalized book on the subject, he has left out a lot of details that are involved with showing and breeding dogs, of which many can be negative and heartbreaking. However, these details are available elsewhere once one decides to get serious about showing. As a primer for learning about dog shows, this is an excellent book.
