A Champion Read !

= A Champion Read

As a German Shepherd owner in northern Ontario, Canada, I found this book of valuable assistance. There is little help in a practical sense for animals in this part of the world, but this book has really helped. Chapters 12 and 13 on pet care are the best chapters in the book: they help you to dedect ailments early on and so you can avoid expensive trips to vets or even losing your loved animal.
Each chapter is clearly set out and has spacing between main paragraphs and sections.

It is obvious that this book is written by a true professional: it is thorough, yet not boringly over detailed. It mentions in one chapter about dominant aggression of the dog, but also, as always, goes to the root cause of the problem , which, of course, helps the breeder or owner alike, to be beware and maybe prevent such behaviour from happening in public.

As I say, it is a very practical book. It starts with a practical plan of how much it would cost to keep a German Shepherd at your home and then goes on to point out how it would fit in the family, how to house it etc. In another chapter, it gives really good advice on what to do with the "undesirables" such as how to remove a stink from your home to removing ticks from the dog.

Beautiful black & white as well as colour photos accompany the chapters.

Only a dummie would skip buying this book !

Having purchased several "other" guide books - this is the only one I will need. D. Caroline Coile writes this book for the common folk to understand and throws a few chuckles in with her skillfull knowledge. And excellent, understandable guide to raising and loving your German Shepherds! Thank you D. Caroline Coile for making me understand to think as my pups do, with a gentle loving hand! I recommend every German Shepherd owner to purchase!

I liked this book because it gave me a lot of information on how to take care of a german shepherd and general techniques of what to do if they are sick, what to feed them, etc.
The best!!!
