As a new dog owner, I was so pleased to find this book which is very thorough and well written (and spoken!). I found it's very well researched and comprehensively put together compared to similar books on the market and it provides everything you need to and should know about the breed. I feel confident in starting a life with my new puppy 'Bonzo' now.

Fantastic handbook and guide
