A must read for the Corgi owner and the soon to be.......2007-08-13

Okay, I'm biased. I'm proud to have been a contributer and some small way to making this book possible. And it's a great book. If you have a Corgi (Pem or Cardi) or a Corgi mix, there are tips in here from some really experienced people. And stories, recipes (people and dog oriented) and pictures. A real delight for those of us who love the breeds. And if you're thinking about getting one, there's advice on how to pick one out, where to find one (hint, not at the pet store) and how to raise a well behaved dog. Not everybody's cut out to be a Corgi owner, but this book can hopefully help you decide.

And it benefits CorgiAid. I can't think of a better way to contribute to a great cause and get something useful in return.

Corgi Wit and Wisdom.......2007-05-13

This is a wonderful book for any Corgi lover, it has great stories, advice and, lots of fun things to read. What a great way to help Corgi aid. Highly recommended! Every Corgi owner should have this.

Great for Corgi lover.......2006-10-26

If you are adopting a corgi or thinking about getting one, this is the book for you. It contains all information you will need to know to raise such a wonderful creature. Love the book so much that I'm almost mad at myself for getting it so late that now mine is almost 3 years old. :)

It IS Everything Corgi.......2006-08-24

My wife and I have owned two cardigan welsh corgi's and they are the only breed for us. Bright, loving, beautiful, stubborn, loyal and hilarious, our two dogs have given us years of joy.

When our oldest died just three weeks short of his 17th birthday, we bought this book based on other reader's reviews in hopes of learning some information about breeders and how to deal with some behavioral issues exhibited by our now seven year-old, Morton. The book provided valuable knowledge and insights about these and other topics. If you're going to buy a book to learn about how to get your own corgi and raise him or her, this is the best volume I've read on the subject.

Corgis - "Let us entertain you".......2005-11-30

Everything you want to know or need to know about the two breeds. An excellent book on how to raise, train and care for any dog.

One thing I do not understand though, is why more people don't own corgis. They're not huge dogs, but they think they are and are one of the most trainable of dogs, plus they are a laugh a minute because no one can convince them they aren't "people". You just need to let them know who is the alpha and who isn't. It doesn't take them long to figure this out, either. It is because, as I said, they are one of the most trainable of dogs.

Customer Reviews:

Great book about Corgis.......2007-03-09

I bought this book while I was still puppy-hunting, and it was great. It has lots of tips and breed-specific info about both Cardigan and Pembroke Welsh Corgis, and was invaluable in helping me locate a good breeder and find the best puppy for us. It also has great tips for when you first bring your puppy home, and is full of gorgeous color pictures. A+.

A great introduction to a wonderful breed of dogs.......2003-07-04

If you already are familiar with the corgi breed, you'll love this book because it's filled with marvelously appealing photos of corgi puppies! There's an unusual number of great photos, unusual even for a book about the breed.

The book also is right on the money with advice on how to raise your corgi to avoid behavior problems. These are working dogs, and if they are trained properly (and it's easy) they are a delight, but without that training they can dominate the household and be a real nuisanced. It's clear that the author knows a lot about the breed.

Most dog books are about dogs in general, with little about the particular breed. You get the impression that there's a general dog book on the word processor that's customized slightly for each breed. This is a book about corgis, written to be just about corgis, and full of great information that's useful for every corgi owner.

Lots of corgi-specific Info.......2001-10-30

The problem with many dog-related books is that they contain a few dozen pages related to the breed & the rest is filled with generic information that pertains to all breeds. This book in particular deals with corgis the whole way through. A great deal of helpful information concerning corgis appears within.

A great book for people narrowing down their breed selection.......2001-10-17

We purchased this book to help us learn more about Corgis, as we were pretty sure we wanted to add a Corgi to our family. This is a concise book, with much Corgi-specific info (though the requisite all-dog info sneaks in, too). Great photos. Showed it to a breeder, and she liked it a lot, too.

Not Everything I Was Hoping For.......2000-10-08

This book was informative on generally on how to care for, train and breed a dog. It explained the history and physical traits of the two Corgis,and had many great photos. My main problem with the book is that it did not go into details of the behavior and personality of Corgis. Already being the owner of a Pembroke, my hope for this kind of information was my main motive for buying this book. Overall, this seemed more like a book about dog care with some Corgi topics included rather than a book devoted to Corgi specifics. Still, the price is reasonable,and the book easy to read and reference. If you are a new owner of a Corgi, or looking to get one, without any dog info book yet, you should be satisfied with this. But, if you are looking to get a more detailed account of Corgi personality and ability, you may not be. I have not read any of the other Corgi books, so can not compare.

Book Description

As the breed's name tells, the Cardigan Welsh Corgi derives from Cardiganshire, Wales, where this tough and agile "dwarf" was used to control unruly cattle. A working farm dog, the Cardigan Welsh Corgi possesses a devilish fearlessness, required to nip at the heels of wild horses, and the intelligence of a fox, which his head and tail preferably resemble. Although low in stature, the Cardigan is not a "small dog" -- this enduring working dog is a down-to-earth canine, whose work ethic and spirit are only matched by his devotion to his family and genuine sincerity. The Cardi makes a superb addition to the right home and requires an owner who is responsible and available.

Richard Beauchamp, a well-respected judge, exhibitor and author, has provided a comprehensive, authoritative text including everything the new Cardi owner needs to know to raise and train this active and versatile dog. This Special Limited Edition, illustrated with over 135 color photographs, covers the origins and history of the breed in Wales and beyond, the breed's characteristics and requirements, the breed standard as well as puppy selection, housebreaking, home safety and puppy-problem prevention. The author also outlines the basic care of the Cardi, grooming, feeding and exercise.

Customer Reviews:

Original, comprehensive, breed specific.......2007-01-22

If you want to learn more about the Cardigan, or already love this wonderfull breed, you will like this book. So many breed books read like a generic dog book where only the breed name and pictures are changed. Information tends to apply to any dog. Not this one; it reads as if every word was written by someone who loves Cardigans. It is comprehensive and objective enough to help a potential Cardigan owner make a good decision and raise their dog well without boring you with too many things any dog lover would already know. Even the training and care sections are breed specific, taking into account the unique temprament of this dog.

all the pictures were great. and the book had lots of great info in it. there could have been more on the breed though. but overall i would buy it all over again.

an ok book.......2001-05-25

The book was ok. Very generic information though. Not really a lot of information about the breed. Good pictures though.

Worth less than its modest price..........1998-03-20

This boilerplate-based book has very little content that is actually Corgi-specific, and most of what it does have is a reprint of the AKC Pembroke Welsh Corgi standard. The history section is interesting and well-written albeit brief, and some of the generic copy is nicely illustrated with Corgi photos. The bulk of the book, however, is generic, with generic illustrations.

brief, concise book with excellent pictures of the breed.......1998-02-06

This book on the cardigan welsh corgi, although very brief is quite informative for those interested in owning the breed as a pet. The chapters focus on a physical description of the breed and general dog care information that can be applied to any dog breed. The pictures are beautiful. This would definitely be a beneficial book for young pet owners to read to help in caring for the family pet (cardigan welsh corgi).

I have not been unsatisfied by this book. It makes you want to read it. I have frequently fallen into mesmerizing information. If you are interested in growing your own herbs and using them, this is your book.

Truly, it is a new world of discovery. If you are unable to find or grow certain herbs, surprisingly there are many others given that could take its place. I was fascinated to find that there was so much overlap in the uses of plants. But then again, I didn't major in Horticulture. Whatever you majored in, this book will definitely catch you up on herbs and their various uses.

I may have to buy another copy in a few years because mine will soon look 100 years old from extensive use.

Happy Growing!!!

The Medicinal Garden is a great book for anyone who is interested in growing their own herbs for healing. It covers everything from how and where to plant, when to harvest, how to dry herbs and the book gives some interesting explanations of the latin names of the herbs. Also covered are the ailments that each herb helps, any dangers of the herbs, how to prepare teas, syrups, creams, compresses etc., and how to store them.

When searching Google for vegetables that grow in alkaline soil, Amazon came up with this book. So I purchased it, it was a big disappointment. Firstly, it was from England, and there was just one small paragraph in the whole book about alkaline soils. I have learned alot through this purchase.

My new veggie bedside book.......2005-08-21

I found the book really easy to read and to consult on the different vegetbles. It really covers everything, I particularly loved the section on making compost like 'Black Jack' Liquid Manure. Great ideas everyone can use, like using nettles and comfrey for manure. The book is so detailed but yet not over the top. It tells you how to plant then manage the veg then harvesting. For me it is the only book I will need to grow my own veg. Thank you Joy Larkcom
