 Greatest book! November 27, 2002
2 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is one of the most comprehensible books on Yorkies that I've seen.
Elaine explains grooming and nutrition in a simple but very informative
style. I especially liked the part about housetraining and history.
Anyone need a good book? This is it! November 27, 2002

For a new or a repeat Yorkie owner this book is a must-have on the
bookshelf. It explains the basics as well as some nuances of the breed for
longtime owners. I have already recommended to this book to several friends
who are thinking of getting a Yorkie.
Still nice to read November 27, 2002

Our family just bought a Yorkie and our breeder recommended that we buy
this book because it tells everything about the breed in a way that's easy
to understand. I'm so glad we did. It helped us from the first day we
brought our dog home and is actually getting a little 'dog-eared' now only 8
months later from all the times we pick it up to look something up.

If you are looking for one book on this toy breed this is probably it.
It covers all aspects of the Yorkie - Elaine didn't leave anything out!
I've had several Yorkies and was looking for another when I found this book.
Wish I had seen this book 20 years ago!

I found the book contrary. She mentions to walk your dog at least
10 minutes a day, then goes on to say that the Yorkie can get
enough exercise in the house. Elaine also implied
that unless your Yorkie was of championship quality, you should
not breed it.You may not find homes for them she says. Fat chance. Yorkie's are a most beloved breed and just because they are not "champs" does not mean that you should not breed them. I own 2 Yorkie's who have papers, but are not from champions. I do not care about the accomplishments of their relatives. They are both "fixed", but only because I do not wish to be a breeder, not because they are inferior to the champions. So, I have a book
available should any one want it.
