Summary: A good Beginners Guide
Comment: I picked up a copy of The Jack Russell Terrier: An Owner's Guide to a Happy Healthy Pet this last summer after bringing home my third Jack Russell puppy. The book is informative and a perfect beginners guide for anyone knew to JRTs. The series basically consists of breed specific info for the first half of the book and general health, training, and care tips for all dogs for the rest. I found most of the info to be helpful and I still go back to it every once in awhile for tips on certain things. The history section was well researched and interesting in regard to how the breed was developed. I would recommend this book to anyone who has just picked up his or her puppy and are looking for a little help or just general info on their new dog.

Summary: Good book for beginners ..nothing more
Comment: This is a good book--for starters that is. It has plenty of in depth information on the JRT history, training, housebreaking, grooming, first-aid, diseases, outdoor activities, diet, and information as to how this breed interacts with other family members and the community. The only drawback about this book is that a few of the chapters were taken from other books. For instance, Chapter 8 on Basic Training is the same chapter that is in Ian Dunbar's "The Essential Jack Russell Terrier" I unknowingly bought these 2 books at the same time. I was very upset when I found out that this book used a chapter from Dr Dunbar's book on training. Chapter 9 and 10 is also taken from another book by Bardi McLennan so beware. Alone this book is very useful and insightful. The only problem is it is repetitive information that is found in other books--literally!

Summary: Good Book for Beginners
Comment: First section of book dedicated to discussion of Jack Russells; very informative. Biggest drawback was last half, consisting of cookie-cutter info dealing with dogs in general. After buying a JRT and discussing dog with others, wonder if author ever owned one, or collected material through interviews/word of mouth. Will give you an overview of the breed, but not much else.
