REVIEWS FOR THE CANINE HANDBOOKS:
“Fantastic informative book bursting with information about poodles of all sizes. We’ve only had our 8 month old poodle for 3 months and are first-time dog owners. So the book is perfect for us as it is full of information from grooming to training and everything in between!” G. WILCOX, CHESHIRE, UK
 “What a wonderful book! My husband and I have been reading it and have so far loved all the useful information. I find it easy to reference topics that I want to learn more about right away. As well as causally reading just for pleasure. All in all a great book,” K. WINDLER, USA
“Brilliant first-time owner manual. I have just got my first puppy, a toy poodle. This book has got lots of information and tips, written very clearly and easy to understand. It covers all ages from puppy to old age and any topic you can think of to help bring up a well behaved and healthy dog. I have already picked up some great tips for my puppy Maple!” N. HARPER, WARWICKSHIRE, UK
“Excellent reference manual. Very enjoyable read! Concise and informative for both experienced and novice poodle owners. Highly recommend this Handbook. In fact have ordered a second one for my daughter as don't think I would get mine back,” B. YOUNG, HAMPSHIRE, UK
“I have been lucky enough to have dogs all of my life and had rather thought that bringing up a poodle pup would be a similar experience to my other pups! How wrong could I have been! I now realise that I was not at all ready for the level of intelligence, sensitivity and incredibly loving nature of my little man - all, I now realise, typical of poodles! 
“I have found this book extremely informative, well written and, obviously, hugely well researched. The book covers every question I have had and will, I am confident, be able to help me with as my pup grows to maturity and settles himself into my little 'pack'. I can thoroughly recommend it to anyone considering embarking on the joyous journey of poodle ownership!” G. HARVEY-JONES, HEREFORDSHIRE, UK
