The New Bernese Mountain Dog

Rating:
Summary: One of the best on Berners
Review: This book has quite a bit of information for those wanting to show their Berner. I am not interested in showing and was quite disappointed. It does not talk a lot about simple pet training or other issues and has only black & white picture. I find the book quite boring and not too practical.

Summary: One of the best on Berners
Review: This is one of the best books on Bernese Mountain Dogs. It has terrific information on the history of the breed and physical structure of the dogs. It contains excellent information on health problems which is critical to anyone who owns a Berner.

This is not a coffee-table book so don't expect color photos. This is not a book about how to train a dog; check out clicker training books instead. This is a book about Bernese Mountain Dogs and is for people who are committed to knowing all they can about the breed.

Summary: Book for Hardcore Berner Lovers
Review: This is simply one of the best Berner books on the market today for people who want to seriously study this breed.

This book is written as a comprehensive study on Berners, and includes superb information for breeders and exhibitors.

Newbies or people who are not hardcore Berner people may want to avoid this book because they'll probably find a lot of the information overwhelming and unnecessary.

But for people who want a great in-depth perspective on the Bernese Mtn Dog Breed, this book is a MUST HAVE. As a breeder, and as an exhibitor, I use it often as a research resource.

If you're a newer PET Berner owner, try beginning with a book more geared toward newbies in the breed like Julia Crawford's Owner's Guide to a Healthy, Happy Pet.

Summary: Great for owners and new buyers of Berners.
Review: This was my second book on the Bernese Mountain Dog and by far the best. It gives great background info. It is so in detail about what to look for if you plan to show your dog. Not only in writing but in pictures. I refer back to this book alot. All beginners should have this book in their collection. I can not praise the Author enough. It's such a fine job of writing
