What a Gem!!

This is an exceptional book. Easy to understand, gets you involved and interested in a subject that might scare a few away. I love it and often go back to remind myself of the basics.

Great book if you want to be a REAL breeder in any breed....

To be a "REAL" (responsible, with a long term contribution to a breed) is no matter of luck, or money (even though you may need some of both!). More than that, you have to study and understand what is behind selecting the right combination of broadstock and stud, cleanning up genetically based failures, and much more. Breeding Better Dogs is a easy to read book (don't need to be an expert) and the tips and methods are readly applicable. I breed American Bulldog, and, for the good of the breed, I really wish the most breeders in the breed would read it.
