Not bad at all, but not really great either.......2003-10-09

I picked up this book when I was trying to find out which dog I wanted after narrowing down my choices. This book is pretty general and doesn't go into much detail. I still look at it once in a while, but still, if you're looking for a lot of information about the Mini Schnauzer, you're only going to find general info in here.

This is the best book about Miniature Schnauzers that I have read. A friend gave us a Schnauzer and this book fits him like a glove. It would be a wonderful addition to the family library even if you don't have a Schnauzer. It's really all you need to know.

For [a few dollars] more, you can get the same info in "The Miniature Schnauzer : Owner's Guide to a Happy Healthy Pet".

I'm a new Miniature Schnauzer owner and I wanted to get all the info I could about these guys. So, I ordered both the books and read this one first. Then, I picked up the larger "...Owner's Guide..." and was very disappointed, since after a couple of sentences it was "deja vu all over again". When I finally read the fine print inside the jacket I found that this is an abridged version of the larger book. Hence the "Essential...." handle. The two books sound like they have different authors but not really. The "et al" portion is not well defined. In reality, the "et al" are part of the committee that authored the larger book. Oh well, its a small dog isn't it?

Neither of the books go into the kind of detail I was looking for. For example, I wanted to know how to clip this guy, but all it "essentially" says is to take it to your groomer and ask questions...as if they want you around while they're buzzing your little guy or girl.

If I were to do it over, armed with my present wisdom, I'd probably buy the larger book and forget this one, although the larger book doesn't get into any more detail than this one. Maybe, I wouldn't buy either.
