Only criticism is that the author prescribes to the debunked dominance theory in dogs. Otherwise a good overview of the bred and prep for bringing home my own in a few months

I really enjoyed this book - a complete overview of where the GSP came from and then a complete guide to how to look after your pup moving through every stage. I would highly recommend to any new dog owner.

More in-depth than the other GSP book, but I feel like the other one had more quality content. Whereas this was quantity over quality.

Great, thorough guide. Would recommend photos of the patterns rather than a bulleted list in the next edition.
