Summary: Get a bitch! Get this book too
Review: A easy reading book that you can finish within a day! Comprehensive and educating. If this book can have a more indept discussion on pregnant bitch. That will be excellent. Why not the author write a book on bitch pregnancy?

Summary: Excellent piece of work
Review: Excellent reading; a must-have for beginners and useful to breeders too

Summary: Very Disappointing.
Review: I do not care for this book at all. I would expect a book devoted to bitches to have a bit more on pregnancy. I have read, many many books on dogs, dog genetics, breeding, showing etc and this one is on the bottom of my list. It came across as very generic to me. Also, as a serious dog fancier, exhibitor and fancier I didn't particularly like hearing the words income and market used when referring to dog breeding.

Summary: Very Disappointing.
Review: Last year I bred my bitch for the first time. She is a very successful and valuable show bitch as well as a much loved family pet and I wanted to do EVERYTHING right for her sake. I looked for information wherever I could find it and sought to buy a good book on whelping etc for the big event. I bought this book at a dog show and never looked back. It covers everything from buying a bitch puppy to her maturity, breeding and any associated health problems she may experience during her lifetime. This book was my bible during this time and is now a little worse for wear after the experience. : ) It's been highlighted, flicked through - you name it. A friend of mine recently borrowed it for her litter - not her first... and she got as much out of it as I did as a first time breeder. I'll be keeping this book for as long as I'm in dogs.... and if I sell any bitch puppies, I will give them a copy of this book as well. Every bitch owner should have a copy in my opinion. It's easy to read, goes through all you need to know without an overload of unecessary information. I'd heartily recommend it.

Summary: Should have more info on Pregancy
Review: Over all understanding of a bitch is just fine. However, the section on pregancy is not detailed. The book should have cover a more comprehensive details of bitch pregnancy for potential readers, so that they will have a more better understanding of the pregancy cycle for bitches. If you looking for a book regards bitch pregnancy, these will not help you much, you can try "dog breeding for professional". If you thinking of getting a bitch, this book will be all right to tell you the pros and cons. You must know what to prepare if you own a bitch, it will be quite messy though. (I have a bitch at home and I have learn how to handle her period with more care) it will make this book a 5 stars if bitch pregancy section have a more info on it.
