Answers lots of questions people ask us about the Chi breed, and helps us understand why she does what she does! 4 of 5 found this review helpful: NOT THAT INFORMATIVE, 2006-04-05 Even as a new owner of a Chihuahua, I know there has to be better books out there than this one. The information in this book isn't anything more than information you can find for yourself simply by doing a little online research. The pictures are not impressive and feature less than average dogs. After reading the reviews on Amazon, I decided to purchase this book (instead of the other titles) but I wish I had taken the time to check it out at a bookstore in town before going through the trouble of purchasing, waiting and then returning. If you are a new owner of a Chihuahua (or even a "veteran") simply search online. You'll find the same information. 4 of 4 found this review helpful: One of the Best for a Newbie, 2006-01-10 As an owner of many chis I have found this book to be of great value to me. There are 154 pages of chihuahua information and lots of pics depicting all sizes and colors of chis(except the merle pattern!) Granted, not all pics follow the breed standard, but not all puppies are perfect either. Has a good chapter on health problems common to chis, however it did not mention cryptorchidism which is common in the male, especially if they are line bred, and did not have much info on pyometra which can quickly become fatal in an unspayed female. The chapter on breeding is pretty extensive for a book not devoted to the subject of only breeding and the genetics sections is simple to understand, but very informative and worth learning if you intend to bred. Highly recommended for a first time owner, any one wanting to know about the chi or for an owner that would just like a good read about their faithful little friend. 4 of 10 found this review helpful: Not Show Quality, 2005-12-03 I did enjoy the content of this book, but the pictures dipict chihuahuas that are not to standard...
