Customer Reviews

Superb, informative, must have!!
This book was very useful even before the puppy was in the house. It tells you about how to choose the breeder you buy your puppy from which is very useful - you know the questions to ask when you go to pick the dog up. It also has details of what to bring with you in the car, for the puppies' journey to its new home.

Easy to use format, good layout and cute pictures! Excellent read and well worth the money!

A good book in theory but my westie is more Marley than Westie!
Never having owned a dog before this was a great introduction to the care and nurture that Westie's need and has been a great reference tool when faced with common dog dilemmas.
