Strong, simple layout, easily navigated, high quality photographs, an absence of nonsensical, amateurish graphics, a clear message in text but not too much of it, and the various sections you would expect...available dogs, adoption info, nationwide rescue links, lost and found, volunteer opportunities, and more.

I tell them to get this book, decide if they truly want a dog and use the author's recommendations in selecting a breed and breeder and selecting a puppy. The breed descriptions are the most accurate and yet simple to understand that I've seen and the book covers many breeds not seen in most other books. I know from my own experience that the descriptions were right on target for my own two dogs."

Some say the new millenium really only starts in 2001 (you know, 1-10, 11-20, etc.). Well I don't really care about that, but I do want to know things like what day of the week my birthday will be, and how many days to Christmas and stuff like that. Through our affiliation with calendars.com, we offer over 250 dog-related 2001 calendars, and thousands more on all kinds of subjects. May be a little late for Hanukkah or Christmas, but why not a New Year's gift of a calendar...the ultimate gift for that special person you can't figure out what else to get. http://www.straight-poop.com/sponsors/dogcalendars.html Fetch Link THE STRAIGHT POOP® Your Free Weekly Guide to the Best of the Web about Dogs ISSN 1527-9766 ©2001 Dog Breeders Online Directory, Inc.
