REVIEWS "A brilliantly written & informative book about an uncommon breed of dog. Makes you understand them & love them all the more for their quirky personality & characteristics. A lovely book & fabulous photos," ALAN W. WEIR, UK "This book is an amazing insight into the breed - & what it takes to live side by side with these dogs who are as equally demanding as they are rewarding. Got this book 2 years into my Schnauzer-owning journey & already found it to have some top tips I hadn't yet picked up. It's packed with loads of great info, health, training, grooming advice & some first-hand stories from owners," AMAZON CUSTOMER, UK "Wow! The Best Standard Schnauzer Handbook, more like the Standard Schnauzer bible! I don't believe there's anything else like it on the market. It lists absolutely everything you would possibly want to know about this breed. This book is a must-have for anyone interested in getting a Standard Schnauzer or even someone that already has this breed like myself for constant reference & interesting facts," ALEX, USA "Five Stars. This book is a great resource for someone who is new to the breed & looking for an unbiased opinion on what all is entailed in being a great dog owner. Being a groomer myself & a standard schnauzer owner, it's nice to see resources that are helpful & full of correct information," LORI, CANADA "At last, our beloved Standards get the spotlight to themselves! Through her excellent research & drawing on the insights of experienced breeders & a range of Standard Schnauzer owners, Linda Whitwam has produced a fantastic book on (what she rightly calls) this "underrated" breed. The book will prove invaluable to anyone who already owns or is contemplating life with a Standard Schnauzer," IAIN C.
