Inside This Book (Learn More)
First Sentence
Watching a typical Border curled in front of the fire, with its nose almost touching the logs, or laying claim to the softest cushion on a chair, you would find it difficult to believe that these terriers belong to one of the toughest working dog breeds. Read the first page

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, well written, ideal for all terrier lovers, 3 Jan 2002
By A Customer
The book is well presented with an eye-catching cover and interior. Whether you are using this book as a reference book, or just for a good read, it is ideal for those who have an interest in the border terrier or dogs in general.

The author obviously has a great interest in the
border terrier and her love of dogs in general shines throughout the book. You get a definite feel for the breed she writes about.

The book is an excellent reference book that you can turn to time and time again - you don't have to be a serious border terrier breeder to want to refer to the book more than once.

The book is written straight to the point, and the extensive research is obvious, it does not contain the "waffle" that many similar books contain and is written in terms that can be understood by all.

This book is a credit to the author who obviously knows her stuff - let's hope there are more "doggie" books in the pipeline.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must for anyone considering buying a Border Terrier, 7 Oct 2005
By Jayne Gillam (Keighley, West Yorkshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
A charming book packed with information, useful addresses and contacts. The book is well researched with humerous stories and matter of fact anecdotes from real Border Terrier owners, breeders, judges and working enthusiasts, it portrays the breed as it really is, warts and all! If you have never owned a Border Terrier before, this book is a must read before you embark on ownership and once you own one you will find you will refer to it time and time again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book!!! Probably the best i have read on this breed., 25 Mar 2009
A well written book, by a very clued up owner/writer. Great pictures and basically everything you need to know about this wonderful breed. I am a dog man and have been for many years,read many books and owned various breeds. This book has sold the border terrier to me and we will definetly be sharing our lives with one or two in the future.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not for me
I bought this book to learn what I could about the breed but I am afraid I could only skip-read it because I was unsympathetic to the persona of the writer. Read more
