Product Description This intelligent dog is naturally friendly and gentle. Though widely used as a sled dog in the far north, it also makes a wonderful household pet. Here's a wealth of advice on caring for a Siberian Husky. Books in the Complete Pet Owner's Manuals series present basic information about pets for new or soon-to-be owners. Advice and instruction covers feeding, housing, health care, training, grooming, protection against hazards, and much more. Texts emphasize pet care basics and are easy for all readers to understand, but most titles in this series also presents facts that even experienced pet owners and breeders will find new and useful. All books in this series are filled with high quality full-color photos and instructive line drawings. Length averages between 64 and 104 pages.

Good Book May 1, 2009 Alexis Guevara (Shanghai) Very general, I mean how descriptive can you be about a dog, they tell you that husky's are over active, they tell you that this should not be your first dog. Makes sense, the book tell you about husky's, what classifies a husky. All dogs are trained the same, you have to adjust your personality to understand the dogs. One husky varies from another, not all are insane like mines. Generally the book is fine, you won't find any tricks on how to train a husky because they are none, just takes more time and patients. So far so good.
Good book, but very general training info... October 29, 2008 Cheryl2501 (Connecticut) I recently adopted a 2 1/2 yr old female sibe, she did not have any prior training, and/or manners. I purchased this book in hopes to get some tips on training her and found the book to be very "general" in the training section. I am aware as to how to teach a dog to sit, come, stay etc., as my other dog is trained already, I was looking for answers as to how to train the Husky imparticular, tips, motivators etc., and I did not find them here...Although very informative on the breed in general.

Siberian Huskies (Barron's A Complete Pet Owner's Manual) October 28, 2000 Adam Holbrook (Murfreesboro, Tennessee USA) 14 out of 14 found this review helpful
Although relatively small (75 pages), this paperback covers a little bit of everything pertaining to Sibes. From breed standards to training to breeding. For it's price it covers a lot of ground but might not go into the detail one might expect from a larger book. However, for it's size and price I feel it is an excellent book worthy of purchase for any owner of the Siberian Husky.
