REVIEWS:
Excellent book on Labs. I am on my third Lab, a yellow male at 8 weeks as I write this, and what a dog he will be with the help of this book and patience," MIKE M, USA
"I was sceptical about the merits of this book when bought in preparation for arrival of 8 week old black lab Loki. It’s actually a brilliant book/manual, very readable and loaded with really helpful and important info about every stage of your Labrador’s development and needs. It is permanently on our kitchen worktop and consulted almost daily," RUSS TATTERSALL, UK
"Plenty of research has clearly gone into this book with so many quotes from reputable breeders. As an Assured KC Breeder of Labradors I have already added this Handbook to my suggested reading list for prospective puppy families, and can wholeheartedly recommend it," MOLANTALI, UK
“We found this to be an excellent book filled with valuable information, tips & guidance for Lab owners. Our puppy is now 4 months old & we have already put into practice some of the tips & techniques suggested in the book,” R.M. SCHARNHORST, USA
"A great book for new labrador owners like ourselves. I like the fact it gives real-life experiences from seasoned labrador owners. Bella seems to like it too, as there are already teeth marks on the cover...lets turn to the chapter to stop puppies biting!" ENUD DAVIES, UK
