Its always interesting to get a new book on your favorite breed of dog, and this book will not disappoint you, Jill Swedlow has coverd all of the usual topics you expect to find in a breed book, ie. history, chooseing a Dane puppy, living with a giant breed, showing and breeding ect, but has also managed to cover topics such as how to keep your Dane happy and healthy, obedience trials, activities and other fun things to do with your dog, and one i found very interesting was the chapter on careing for your older Dane. This book has some very beautiful illustraions of Great Dane's of all ages, If you have kept Danes for years or are thinking of buying your first Great Dane puppy this book is a must, it will give you many hours of fun and informative reading on your favorite breed the Great Dane! highly recommend.

I bought this book as a present for my mother at christmas, It was a week of experimentation on the dog! We have a dog with diabetes and she has started a new lease of life. My mother then wanted the cat counterpart, which itself has proved very useful. Now I have requests from my mothers friends for copies of the book and now even their friends want it.
