Reading for Dummies.......2007-01-06

This book is concise, quick to read, and easy to understand. Although some was common sense, there was much more that was important and unknown for the novice breeders. I would highly recommend this book for anyone entertaining thoughts of breeding any kind of animals for fun or profit.

not just for "dummies".......2006-11-10

I have been a dog owner my entire life, have worked with dogs, and owned or fostered/rescued many myself. When I aquired my first AKC Pug, I began toying with the idea of breeding and raising Pugs myself. Aware that many Pugs suffer health problems due to negligant breeding, and that many dogs end up in shelters due to overpopulation, I knew that I needed to do a lot of research and preparation before making a decision to breed my dog.

I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone who is interested in the breeding of purebred dogs, whether for pet or for show. It touches on all the topics of genetics, selection, whelping, and so much more. And its written so that anyone can understand it with ease.
In addition to this, reading this information would help puppy buyers to discern what REALLY is a good breeder when they are looking to purchase a quality puppy, the things to look for.

reading this book by itself will not automatically make you a "good breeder" its just a start, but a good start. You also need to make sure you are always under the supervision of your veterinarian as well.

Breeding Dogs For Dummies.......2006-03-22

Great starter book. Picked up a few pointers that helped me understand the next book which was definitely NOT a primer. Plus this book was easy to bookmark for future reference. Would recommend this title to anyone who is just getting started and also has a mentor to refer to.

Breed 'em?.......2005-10-19

What do you have to do? Hire a shadkhan? It should be a major project, like a dynastic marriage, you should have allies in the next war?
Don't they breed anyway? Everybody I ever met, people or dogs, they had it on their own agenda, nobody had to tell them.

Excellent book..Breeding Dogs for Dummies.......2005-10-12

This book has a lot of very good information. It is very well put together, and the author has a sence of humor.
