Editorial Reviews:
Product Description Over 32,000 Shetland Sheepdogs were registered by the AKC in 1997 and this tells you what an enduring favorite this hard-charging herding dog is. This loving tribute to the "Sheltie" shows all the reasons for its great popularity and covers every essential of care, training and competition and a great deal more. The Standard is meticulously reviewed and a profusion of beautiful black and white and color photos grace the excellent, world-class text—a pure delight for every fan of the breed.

Customer Reviews:
best book for casual sheltie owner March 11, 2000 65 out of 68 found this review helpful
This is a great book for someone who has or is going to have a companion (as opposed to show dogs). Tells you everything you need to know in an incredibly readable style, tons of color and black and white pictures of shelties, and full of useful information. There's an interesting section comparing the British and US standards for the breed (the author is British). If someone is looking for more information on Shelties this is the book to get. The only unreadable section is the part covering important North American bloodlines, which is written by someone else, and immediately bogs down in breeder-speak. The best sheltie book I've read so far.
