Some good tips. All the stuff about breeders and show dogs and bloodlines is perverse.

I've been spoiled by the canine handbook series. They provide much more information, history, and practical things to look for.

Good read for those thinking about owning the breed

It was very informative , but still contradictive to other information I read about the breed. I gave 4 stars because it was a lot of general information not specific to Chinese Shar Pei's.
