Book Reviews of The Complete Book of Dog Breeding
Book Review: good book for first time breeders
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this book after I found out my Siberian husky was pregnant. It helped me understand my dog's actions and how to assist her before, during, and after birth. I was very pleased that this book used easy terms that even I could understand. Great book for a first time breeder or a reference for the experienced breeder.
