Great Book for Schipperke owner or if you are considering the bread
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
Great book & well written I have purchased a Schipperke and this book really helped me make my decision. I use it as a reference guide when things come up with my puppy and know it will be useful throughout his life. History section interesting. Information easy to read and interesting.
Very Helpful!

A very helpful book for the first time Schipperke owner (as well as a first time puppy owner!)
good basic information for the breed
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I was surprised to see Robert Pollet, a French specialist in BSDs and Schipperkes, writing a book for the UK/English language pet/show market. I met him over 20 years ago at the Paris Specialty for the Belgian breeds (all 4 BSD varieties and the Schipperke as well). He has a good solid grounding in the breed and its behaviour and the book addresses many of the basic backgrounds and problems in the breed. He was astute enough to utilize photographs of UK bred dogs for the main, so I would think that this book would do well with the pet market here in the UK, as it has been many years since a book was written about the breed. The standard laid out in the book is the UK Kennel Club's Breed standard for the breed. Mary Deats (Aradet Schipperkes, and international judge of the breed in USA/Canada/UK and Europe)
