A must have for breeders

I have this book and other books by Myra Savant-Harris. Great author, and speaker. I read her books and then went to a clinic, by Myra. Was great!! I learned so much, and she is so helpful. I had a question and emailed her, she answer me right away. Keep up all your good work Myra Savant-Harris.

Very helpful information

Book is very helpful, answered a lot of questions I had and now feel pretty prepared for delivery of our first puppies..

Wonderful book

This is an awesome book for anyone that is interested in breeding dogs, or just for the over all general care of your pets. I can't say enough good things about the book.

A must for breeders!

Before breeding my first litter, I read anything I could get my hands on, ordered appropriate books, intensely searched online, got my emergency supplies together, my puppy exercises prepared, and my vet on standby. But in all the searching I did, these two books (this one and Puppy Intensive Care, same author) were really what I was looking for at the time. Wrapped in a neat package, they cover everything that you could experience as an emergency. Many of the questions I still had unanswered in my mind after the litters I've raised were answered in these two books. I would just add How to Raise a Puppy You Can Live With as a good overall puppy development and socialization book.

BUY THIS!!!!!

I will try my hardest to express in mere words how insanely wonderful this book is. Here goes. I read several breeding books before I found this one and I found this one to have the best advice of them all. The lady is an RN midwife that works in a hospital delivering human babies. She did this for years before learning to be a dog breeder and becoming friends with a vet that is an absolute expert in canine midwifery that taught her a thing or two that's for sure. Her medical experience plus what she's learned from whelping puppies combines for one extremely objective, helpful book that is still down to earth and understandable for anybody.
