Yorkshire Terriers: Everything About Purchase, Care, Nutrition, Breeding, Behavior, and Training (Pets)

Rating:
Summary: A very basic beginners book for someone researching yorkies.
Review: A very basic book for someone trying to learn a little more about yorkies. Especially good for someone trying to decide if a yorkie is the dog breed for them. Reviews the AKC standard, the basic care, grooming and feeding requirements of yorkies. A very informative book for the novice buyer.

Summary: Not as good as 1st edition with Jurgen Grunn as co-author
Review: The first edition had better photographs, less obedience information, more on the Yorkshire Terrier, less general information - (which does not apply to Toy dogs usually). In the first edition - which had Jurgen Grunn as co-author, there was a photograph on page 29 which shows the difference between a very young puppy and its dam.This has been extremely useful to show buyers who sometimes wonder, seeing an 8 week-old puppy, if that is a pure-bred Yorkie since it so very different from its parents.

Summary: Helpful- a good guide!
Review: This is a really helpful, interesting book about Yorkies, and dogs in general! This is a great book is you're getting you're first dog, or first Yorkshire Terrier! It covers all the basics, and if you're thinking about getting dog this is a great book. Although some things like training would require aditional information, this book is a clear, easy to read guide to owning a dog, more specifically a Yorkie. I have refered back to this book many times in my first year with my dog!
