Rate this book
Every dog lover who picks up this handsome and informative book will want to take it home. It's an attractively laid-out illustrated encyclopedia that covers 140 canine breeds. They are presented alphabetically, with full-color photos, capsule descriptions, and sidebar charts that list physical traits and general excercise and space needs. A few of the breeds shown and described are relatively unknown in North America, but common to Europe, with potential for great popularity in America in the near future. This book will prove to be a favorite among dog owners and breeders, as well as non-experts who plan to purchase a dog. More than 150 full-color photos in all.
