Updated version of popular book September 3, 2009
C. COILE (FL)
This is the updated version of the very popular book that many people credit with enabling them to finish their first champions. For additional reveiws, see the Amazon page for the first edition. By the way, the cover shown here is NOT the cover of the book, but a dummy cover the publisher supplied before the book went to print.
Excellent for beginners! August 2, 2009

I am new to showing and found and find this book to be a great help. It covers so much in a nice, concise format.
Highly recommend it to a person new or interested in showing a dog.
