So much information
What a terrific book! Great photos, and even better information. Better than just a coffee table book. We just keep picking it up and enjoy looking at the different breeds and learning more than we knew. A good book for any dog lover.

If you want a BREED BOOK, get this ONE!
What a great and informative book. I have searched for a good breed book and tried several others. many were too basic or filled with errors. This one is very informative and great pictures.

One of my all time favorites
I just love this book of dog portraits. I donât own a dog but I do find them to be fascinating creatures. Just reading little sections makes me happy in the morning.I kinda wish I could get a dog but those cold morning walks in the winter, the cost of vet visits, allergies, etc. keep me from doing so but if I were to decide on getting a dog as a companion this book would be a big help in deciding what to look for. Right now I am leaning toward a lurcher.

Overview only
This gives a good overview of dogs. I do find the symbols kind of confusing – if itâs shaded the dog is good with kids or not good with other dogs. But it didnât very dark and so I think That part could be clearer imo. This is just really vague kind descriptions. they did a good job of covering lots of current breeds. I would still like a book that goes more in depth to the dogs behavior/ temperament . But that would need to be a huge book ….I found some of these descriptions still a bit general… itâs a good intro to breeds but if you know what breed youâre leaning toward then maybe get a book just about that specific kind.

Detailed! (Few breeds missing)
I noticed a couple breeds were missing, I’m not sure if they’re not recognized or the book hasn’t been updated but it is a great read.
