Canine Terminology (Dogwise Classics) Hardcover – January 1, 2001

Purchased this book to help while studying dog grooming. It has been very useful.

This is a must-have for anyone with a dog book collection. So much good information.

Arrived timely, great condition, as described

Canine Terminology by Harold Spira is a timeless classic that every dog enthusiast should own. If you are the slightest bit interested in breeding dogs, showing dogs or just knowing about dogs this book explains clearly,concisely and with excellant drawings what all the terms that you will find in dog breed standards and show reports actually mean. It is written for all levels of knowledge in a non-patronising way that imparts knowledge and instills confidence in the reader and also shows a love and respect of the subject. This book is widely recommended by many courses on dogs, quite deservedly so.

This book would be great for any pure bred dog owner to have around. I show my dogs and sometimes i'll hear a term being used by other fanciers who know a lot more than me. I may have to keep quiet at first but after checkng my "Canine Terminology" book for that term i can later join the conversation and pretend i knew what they was talking about the whole time. LOL ...this book i also great for understanding terms your vet may have used that you didn't understand. It's just a all around good book to have around for some one who is a serious dog fancier.

Gifted to my husband, a definite "dog expert" with 50+ years in dogs. He found the illustrations/diagrams outstanding and the explanations excellent. He would recommend this informative book to anyone from novice to expert who is truly interested in gaining information about dogs!

I am studying to become a dog groomer, and sometimes the amount of technical jargon can become overwhelming. This book helped me quite a bit in that department, with explanations in plain language and wonderful illustrations. A must for everyone who is considering becoming involved in the pet industry.

because it was the book I wanted to give to my granddaughter for her 17th birthday as she wishes to become a Vet Nurse and a Show Dog Judge. and this will be of great help with her studies. My Grand daughter thinks all 3 books are wonderful

Buena aportación para la colección de libros de cinofilia

Ottimo per imparare la terminologia cinofila in inglese, soprattutto per chi frequenta expo, alleva e fa commissario di ring. Per me è stato ed è di gran aiuto.Lo consiglio.

Great, all as described

Mejor de lo que me esperaba. Contiene ilustraciones muy precisas y bonitas. A parte el contenido en formato diccionario. Estoy encantada, como siempre muy buen servicio de amazon.
