The Complete Dog Book (19th Ed Revised)
by American Kennel Club Staff
There's the Scottish Terrier ("an earth dog used in hunting the fox and the brocke"), the Boston Terrier ("a lively, highly intelligent, smooth coated, short-headed, compactly built, short- tailed, well balanced dog"), or the Great Dane ("one of the most elegant and distinguished varieties of giant-type dog"). In fact, there are 146 AKC-recognized breeds profiled within the pages of the Complete Dog Book, and the pictures and text provide great bowser browsing. The breed descriptions help you choose among the hounds, terriers, toys, and working breeds, the herders, guard dogs, and sporting breeds. Measurements help determine which dogs will best fit your abode (Chesapeake Bay Retrievers measure 21 to 26 inches high at the shoulder, Chinese Cresteds are a mere 11 to 13 inches off the ground, while the Irish Wolfhound stands 30 to 32 inches tall), breed temperaments help you choose your ideal pet, and show criteria help you know what you're looking for when you actually start to shop for a pup. In the meantime, there are interesting stories about breed origins, and a useful glossary of dog terms, while the chapters on grooming, training, and Canine Health and First Aid will come in handy once you've brought your new dog home. --Stephanie Gold - Amazon.com

Ninety-Nine Newfies
by Pat Seawell
Pat Seawell has not only done a wonderful job editing this book of Newfoundland dog stories, but she has singlehandedly pulled a large group of people together to the benefit of our beloved breed! She has, with grace, tireless hard work, and tremendous caring, developed a surefire strategy to filter funds into the Newfoundland Dog Health Challenge. I believe that this effort will continue to produce volumes of stories that showcase the antics of our Newfies--and we will cherish them forever.
