Summary: A Wonderful Book written about my FAVORITE breed!
Comment: I have owned one Ridgeback who passed away a year and a half ago, and now currently own my 2nd. I have several other books about the breed and really enjoyed Eileen's book the best. It does repeat some of the info I have in other books, such as the history of the breed and breed standard, but lets face it any book on the breed MUST contain those topics. But in some of my other Ridgeback books they seem to either cover a lot of info that is geared towards dogs in general or they tended to cover a lot of information on show dogs throughout the world. But in this book I found the topics to be more unique to our breed & very informative and entertaining. The author goes into details of her own experiences with some of the topics, like sighting examples of her dogs' sense of humor, how they have amused themselves when left alone, how she has trained her dogs for obedience competition etc. etc. AND that is just in the third chapter of the book! The endless pictures she includes in her book are beautiful as well. I just loved this book!

Summary: The Greatest Breed Ever
Comment: This is a great book that introduces the reader to the Rhodesian Ridgeback breed. I found the book to be very helpful and insightful. My wife and I just got a puppy and this book has helped us out with him. We know what to expect from him which is extremely helpful with his training. It has also made us aware of the importance of vaccines and other medical emergencies that can occur and the proper way to handle them. The book is not an in depth technical look at the breed, but an overview of how great these dogs can be to a family, which is why it is so enjoyable. I thought the history of the breed was facinating, along with the descriptions on how gentle ridgebacks are to humans. The author also has a Q & A that is helpful and intersting. These insights really help the reader to familize themselves with these dogs. Also, the pictures were fantastic, they really provide a good look at numerous Ridgebacks and show the beauty of these dogs. If you are thinking about getting a Ridgeback or want an overview of the breed, this book is for you.

Summary: Wonderful, insightful and a joy to read.
Comment: I read this book after having my Ridgeback puppy for one year and found the author's knowledge of the breed to be second to none. She obviously has devoted her life to assuring the happy, healthy furtherance of this exceptional breed. Chapters on history and ancestry are fascinating, but the most delightful parts (obviously due to the author's longstanding commitment to caring for Ridgebcaks) involve descriptions of the breed's personality and temperment. I found myself laughing out loud at some of the author's personal stories and anecdotes as they are so accurate and funny. Although this book is part of a series on all breeds and contains helpful chapters relevant to the basic health care, training etc.. applicable to all dogs, the Ridgeback specific chapters are a joy to read and would provide any (lucky) would-be Ridgeback owner with an insightful and interesting overview of this wonderful breed. Highly recommended!
