Marle’ Treurnicht ( Ningkai Chows RSA) …I'm really enjoying your book. It's one of those books you must read quite a few time because everytime something else sticks in your mind. I also refer back to it, paging around like mad, when I'm convinced I saw something and need to read it again. :-)What would be nice in your next book is to shortly discuss some common problems in the breed that we encounter here. No need to say that line has this but more generally. If you can just explain things like Sebaceous Adenitis and this Immune Deficiency thing. Most chowists know what HD ED and patellas are, but there will always be new chowists that doesn't. Just an idea...
Christina Pleinart (Netchows;Austria) ...You have done huge work on it - it looks fabulous and holds some information treasures ... fascinating to view all that material from a European point of view too!
Mike and Estelle Cliff (Mufasa Chow Chows)..."just received the books , thanks.WOW!!!! What a stunning and well put together book. Incredible, wow,thank you soooo much.
