Negative Positive
Title: A good book especially for history and breeding information
Review: Some people have called this the Sheltie Bible. It's certainly detailed and goes into a lot of detail about issues most other books miss. In particular, it goes into some interesting history of US sheepdogs, and it talks a lot about what a good show dog should look like, and how you can pick a good puppy.It's quite dated now but I'm not sure if there is that much progress in the owning of Shetland Sheepdogs, so I don't think this is a problem. The photos are all black and white and the fashion of the owners isn't really 21st century!In summary, it's a good book. I would recommend a serious owner getting this in addition to a more general book about how to look after Shelties (for example, Shetland Sheepdog: A Comprehensive Guide to Owning and Caring for Your Dog).
