Reviews for The Canine Handbooks: "We just brought home our new Boston Terrier last weekend. This book is the canine equivalent of the “What To Expect” series for expecting and new parents - it tells you everything you need to know. The Boston Terrier Handbook is well written, informative, historical, and entertaining. I read the book in about a week, cover to cover. I am so glad I did. It was a great read, and a great source for more information about the breed, caring for our new pup now, and as time goes on. All the things you want to ask your vet, but they don’t know enough about the breed to give a proper answer, it’s in this book. Every silly thing about your Boston, that only a Boston lover can appreciate, it’s in this book. I would definitely recommend it for current and future Boston parents," COURTNEY B., CALIFORNIA, USA "'I'm a first time dog owner/Boston terrier owner and this book is fantastic. It's very informative, easy to read.Full of basic details, history of the breed, health, breeding and much more. I would high recommend this book, it's an absolute bargain for the price," A. TURLEY, UK "This is an excellent book for any owner of these beautiful little dogs. It is a book I am going to recommend to all my Boston Terrier friends. It is clear and concise... and Is a must read for Boston owners, whether just a pet or a show dog. I have owned, bred and shown Bostons for 7 years, and wish I had a copy of the book during my learning stage," SANDRA A., USA "Growing up in a family with Boston Terriers and now having one of my own, I thought I knew pretty much all there is to know about these wonderful little dogs. Boy was I wrong! I often wondered why they act in certain ways like following me around from one room to the next. And now I know……..they are “velcro dogs!” Also, Wille, our current Boston boy, is experiencing a lot of itching issues and Linda’s book explains why this is and what we can do about it. For anyone interested in getting a Boston Terrier and wants to learn about why these are the most wonderful dogs in the world, you should definitely read this book," K.V.S. MAINE, USA
