I am purchasing this book and have not read it yet. This book was recommended to me by the breeder of my Toy Manchester Terrier. My husband and I first heard of the breed in a dog book and we started looking for a breeder. As luck would have it, we found a breeder on the other side of our state. They are a hard breed to find but well worth any work put into the search. Our dog is the sweetest baby and has been a delight to our families and friends and we are always asked about her by people on the street. It is true that it is hard to find much information on the breed. I am heartily in favor of any publication that gets the word out on the many virtues of this breed of dog and am looking forward to receiving my copy of this book by Phil Shane.

This book provides alot of good basic information about MT's maybe alittle more than you would get doing an intense web search.
I still feel I want another book or more information. Maybe I can only get the information I want from speaking to owners or breeders directly.
The pictures are super high gloss, almost scarely glossy.
This book has a bias to Toy Manchester Terriers purely because the author is a toy breeder. A lot of the pics are of toys.
I would recommend this book to prespective owners.

If you have ever looked for books on Manchester Terriers, you will know that there are not many out there. This book is incredible. Everything you would have ever wanted to know about the breed is included. Their past, proper diet, classifications, known illnesses etc. I would definitly recomend this book to owners of the breed.
