Gentry's Westie Book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
The only issue I have with this book was that it was focused only on American breeders. And it even missed one of the major American breeders in it's little bios. But the chapters on GROOMING are invaluable to any novice Westie owner and breeder. If you just gotten your first Westie you'll learn more about grooming here than any breeder will share with you. So get the book.
A must for every Westie Lover's library!

The most indepth, comprehensive book about the West Highland White Terrier available today. This book is a must for the library of the breed lover. The historical lineage of the breed, as well as the sketches of those who've made an impact in the breed in the 20th century, is beyond compare. Ms. Gentry offered something for everyone from the pet lover to the most serious dog show owner. I appreciated the separate chapters that are written by experts in the fields of grooming, performance events, and health. You will find something on every page that will help you and your beloved Westie!
A must for any Westie owner's library!

A book that informs and entertains while taking an indepth look at the Westhighland White Terrier. Topics ranging from grooming techniques to breed lineages are addressed. This book provides valuable information for the enthusiastic pet owner as well as the dedicated breeder. Superior pictures and illustrations. Ranks right along with "A New Owner's Guide to West Highland Terriers" by Dawn Martin and "Westies from Head to Tail" by Ruth Faherty. I will be purchasing this book as a gift for friends who are fanciers of the breed.
