All About Dog Shows
Monte-Carlo
Concours de Chiens by Sam Kohl
All About Dog Shows is the perfect spectator’s guide to the enjoyment and understanding of dog shows.
In straightforward, easily readable text, the author places the reader in the role of an actively involved visitor to a dog show. During this step-by-step guided tour through the multiple phases of the all-breed dog show, the reader learns which classes a dog may be entered in on its way to the coveted Best In Show trophy, what the judge looks for in a winning dog, which characteristics the breeds within the six Groups of dogs share and much more. The book’s appeal is heightened by dozens of pen and ink drawings illustrating the text, as well as many full-colour photos picturing recent winning show dogs. Entertaining as well as informative, All About Dog Shows is a sensible investment for any dog show visitor.
