A little more on books.
I won't ready any more stuff by Bruse Fogle
I used to have a really nice huge antique dog book that had pricless pictures of famous dogs from the 60s-80s and I lent it to a friend who moved away before giving it back
Dog Fancy is way too general for me
I like the way the Simon and Schuster's dog book shows the breeds in a good light, yet has the "may nip" (and other) symbols at the side.
My favorite horse book is Understanding Horses and I have never seen a horse book written by an American author, has anyone else?
