Summary: Limited appeal for many owners in the USA; outdated.
Comment: I was interested in the authors' history of the breed, but the rest of the book was of no use to me at all. I'm not planning to take my puppy out with ferrets to hunt rabbits and badgers, so I don't need a chapter on getting him "broken" to ferrets. I don't plan to hunt the dog at all, so the lengthy chapters on teaching him to hunt were interesting only in the abstract. A chapter on disease focused largely on the diseases for which puppies are routinely vaccinated here (distemper, leptospirosis, et al) so the pages and pages of their grisly symptoms and unsuccessful treatment were useless. The treatments for mange and ear infections seemed primitive. The book was written 20 years ago in England and has been reprinted (but never updated) several times since. I got my puppy in Ireland, and found the veterinary care far more modern that this book would suggest. Surely, in England it would be much the same. This book is a curiosity with some interesting bits, but it isn't the first book that I would suggest you buy.
