It’s Just Me –
some breed specific; much is not
Chapters: History, Characteristics, Breed Standard, Your Puppy, Proper Care, Training, Healthcare, Senior, Showing. I have found Nina Kilgore Bauer’s breed books to be fairly generic, though the history section is usually fairly good. Temperament is usually accurately covered, but is only touched on briefly, which I think is a shame as it is far more important to most people than the breed standard and showing. Care, training, etc. is thoroughly covered in other books. Wish this book was much more specific to the Curly-coated Retriever, especially as there doesn’t seem to be a truly good book that is.From the back: Prized for his mass of small crisp curls covering black- or liver-colored body, as his name aptly describes, the Curly-coated Retriever can outswim, outrun and outclass any of the Sporting breeds. Not only is the Curly the oldest gundog of the United Kingdom, he is also the most unique. Only devoted fans of the Curly know the secrets of this smart, active retriever: his confidence, independence, sense of humor and fun and his uncompromising work ethic. As a family companion and best friend, the Curly-coated Retriever rivals his more popular retriever brethren in personality and loyalty.The book sums up the Curly’s temperament as independent and intelligent.
