VERY READABLE,I WAS GLAD TO SEE THIS WAS NOT JUST A GENERIC “PUPPY RAISING BOOK”, SINCE I AM A HARD CORE GERMAN SHEPHERD OWNER I FOUND ALOT OF GOOD INFORMATION ON GOLDEN RETRIEVERS, AND IT HAS BEEN VERY HELPFUL IN RAISING AND TRAINING MY GOLDEN RETRIEVER.

This book is spectacular or should I say “truly golden!”
I am thrilled several photographs of my three rescued Golden Retrievers, Ginger and Audrey and the late Cinnamon, are in the book however I must add that the entire book is so superb… it is truly a “complete” guide to Goldens! Being involved in Golden rescue I have found it to be an awesome tool to share with those interested in learning more about Goldens, those considering adopting a Golden and for those who are already a Golden “parent(s)” – it is well written,
thorough, organized, and the photographs really highlight the book! Consider donating a copy to your local library, schools, etc. like I have done. It is a great guide to refer to time and time again! This book is a lot of fun and educational at the same time! My Goldens Audrey and Ginger give it four paws up!
