Customer Reviews

over complicated, over fussy & Over American
As experienced dog owners shortly to get our first Golden this book looked good. Wrong. It made keeping a family pet seem so involved & impossibly complicated no ordinary person could do it. Also very American language & atmosphere.
Might have some use if you're looking for excuses NOT to take on a dog.

Everything Golden Retrievers
An outstanding book with all the information you require to give you a complete understanding of this particular breed.
