Product Description
An exquisite companion dog, adorned in a gleaming solid-white coat, the Japanese Spitz is a rare find indeed. Relatively new to the world of pure-bred dogs, the Japanese Spitz traces its origins to 20th-century Japan, where the breed enjoys an enthusiastic following. Outside its native land, the breed has begun to catch the eye of discriminate fanciers in the UK and US. This Special Rare-Breed Edition, written by British Japanese Spitz breeder Michael P. Rule, proves a vital resource for dog lovers interested in this spectacular Nordic breed. Colorful and comprehensive in its scope, this book discusses breed history, accompanied by many important historical photographs, plus breed characteristics and standard as well as health care, grooming, obedience and house-training, puppy selection and everyday care. In addition to an authoritative text, written with both the pet owner and breed fancier in mind, this book presents over 135 color photographs of elegant Japanese Spitzes that prove to be as attractive as they are informative. Readers will welcome the authors insightful advice about raising and caring for a Japanese Spitz, and will consider this one-of-a-kind edition indispensable and resourceful.

 Very informational September 22, 2009
Michelle Chiu
Its a pretty good well rounded book =) Gives you a bit of history of the spitz as well as takes you through the personality and needs of it too. After the descriptions of the japanese spitz, it goes through general items you will need to buy, what to look out for, how to house proof and such =) I wish it would have talked a bit about the differences between genders in this breed but it did not. Other than that a must buy if you are planning to have this breed =) =) Seems like its the only book on the market about the Japanese spitz.
 This book is almost like the American Eskimo May 11, 2009

When you look at both books it's just a mirror image of what is being displayed on the cover for either books. Now isn't that ironic?

This is a very informative book. Lots of great pictures and practical advice. Worth while if you are intending on purchasing a Japanese Spitz or if you already have one. Great reference book.
