Review by potential TM owner January 6, 2001 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I brought this book because I was interested in getting my own TM and I wanted to know as much about them as possible. The history was fascinating, and it has given me an insight into the nature of the TM. I thoroughly enjoyed it, however, I would have enjoyed by colour pictures to show off to friends. But I guess when I have the real thing, that will be a much better way of showing off.
Excellent Book-good content about breed: past and present January 3, 1999 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
This is a terrific book about the Tibetan Mastiff. It provides an all encompassing look at the history of the breed. It covers the show standards, temperment, and common medical problems. It also contains many stories about the breed both in Tibet and outside of the dogs native land. I highly recommend this book to the avid dog lover or to the TM fancier.
An excellent reference for the Tibetan Mastiff fancier. April 21, 1997 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
This book, written by one of the breed's earliest and most knowledgeable proponents, is an excellent source of information for both the Tibetan Mastiff owner, and those considering the breed. Written with emphasis on the breed's history in the United States, it does cover some background of the breed in Nepal and Tibet, and mentions a few of the notable European dogs. Along with the excellent pictures of early Tibetan Mastiffs, and prominent show dogs in the US, are health and care tips - this is a reference book that anyone with an interest in the breed should not be without.
