Tremendous Incite Into the Scottie!.......2003-03-02
The book provides tremendous incite into the Scottish Terrier thanks to the years Miriam Stamm has spent as a breeder, owner and handler of Scotties. In fact, her kennel, Amstamm, is one of the most important breeding kennels in our country for furthering and protecting the breed.
If you own, are interested in or about to acquire a Scottish terrier buy this book.You will not be disappointed.
This is a special book reflective of the Scottie as a special breed!
Disappointing.......2003-01-15
There is a tremendous amount of information in this book that's generic and could apply to any dog breed. I was looking for information specific to the Scottie and was largely disappointed. When I got to the page where the authors talk about when your dog gets to 55 lbs. size, my attention waned -- Scotties are around 20 lbs. full grown! In large portions of the book, you could change the title and pictures, and you would be reading about any dog breed. The book also appeared to be somewhat of an 'infomercial.' It's disappointing in a book of this nature when one is directed to pet products by brand name, which I think challenges the credibility and impartiality of the authors.
Very good!!!.......2002-12-03
Great information about the breed. This is not just another "one size fits all" dog book with the same doggy content and different breed photo on the cover. Scotties have an unique personality and need understanding.
Perfect book for start up.......2002-03-14
I appreciated very much this book as it offers a wide array of subject about the Scottish from the day it is chosen to feeding and training all in a simple and pretty way. A bible for any scottish new owner.
Wonderful!.......2000-06-11
This book is perfect for the beginning scottie owner, too. Not just the show person. It gives wonderful basic information on what to expect from living with a scottie.

*THE* Book To Have For Scottie Lovers.......2001-01-13
I've hunted for this book forever! I came across it finally at a dog show in Scotland last year. This is *the* book for you if you're a scottie lover. Miss Penn-Bull has done a wonderful job with this book.
A must-read by the doyenne of Scottish Terriers........1997-07-17
If you get just one book on Scottish Terriers, get this one!
Betty Penn-Bull's masterwork on the breed is unrivalled, not only in the scope and quality of information, but in the wonderfully engaging prose and many fine photographs of history's finest Scottish Terriers.
Of particular interest to the fancier are the excellent chapters on breeding and building championship stock. No serious student of the breed should be without this book.

Good Service.......2007-01-16
Thank you for your prompt service. Your communication every step of the way was greatly appreciated.
Guidebook to the Scottish Terrier.......2002-07-22
I expect good pet books to guide me in the search for relevant information. This manual on Scottish Terriers does an excellent job of providing a thorough overview of what this interesting breed is like to live with and if it fits with a prospective owner's lifestyle. For the established Scottish Terrier owner, it offers a handy book on the shelf as a step-by-step guide to feeding, excercising, grooming,training and keeping your dog in good health.
The author, and experienced veterinarian, and author of numerous companion animal books, provides accurate and practical medical advise for owners. I found the criteria for puppy selection (specific, practical clues to sorting out the "most likely to suceed") very useful and the "basic training" tips very constructive in molding a terrier personality into a obedient, fun-loving pet.
The book format is well above average--complete, logically laid out, generously illustrated, and arranged to make for informative reading or a quick reference book.

Scottish Terriers.......2001-08-04
This is a great little book about this breed of dog filled with general care to include diet; health; grooming and training as it pertains to the Scottish Terrier. It is filled with lots of nice pictures which help the person newly acquainted with the breed, especially since they are not a commonly seen breed. Very informative and useful book, and one of the few devoted entirely to the one breed. I liked it and would recommend it.

the new Scottish Terrier by Cindy Cooke.......2007-06-01
This is the very best book I have - or have ever read - on Scottie dogs. Wonderful history- so many tips- great on health- breeding- pictures- and my favorite page- 57- every scottie owner knows that love, the first time they ever saw their scottie or scotties for the very first time. This book makes a wonderful gift for anyone in love with the breed.
The New Scottish Terrier.......2006-03-12
This book is excellent for anyone that may be considering breeding or owning a Scottish Terrier. I was able to track my dogs' pedigree to many of the lines mentioned in the book. The affect that some of the breeders mentioned in the book had on the breed was very informative. It made me quite aware of how important it is to breed responsibly.
Learn All you wanted to know about the Scottish Terrier..........2002-10-03
Cindy is most knowledgeable about the breed, the Scottish Terrier, and is a co-owner of Anstamm Kennels in Michigan, one of the foremost breeders of the Scottish Terrier in the U.S. They have been successful breeders of Scotties for over 40 years...Cindy has put a lot of time and work into this book...she chronicles the breed from its beginning, and she highlights notable breeders in the United States....If you want to learn MORE about the Scottish Terrier...from start to finish, and be able to UNDERSTAND the lingo, buy Cindy's book...I highly recommend it!!!
Loved it!.......2001-03-03
This is a must have for the scottie pet owner and those interested in the history and future of the breed. This book has so much valuable info and interesting stories! THANKS!!
Cindy Cooke Score a "10" with Scottie Lovers.......2000-11-17
With "the new Scottish Terrier," author cindy Cooks continues to contribute to this breed's notariety in this country. These are special dogs, and her love of the breed comes through loud and clear in every chapter.
Non-owners of Scottish Terriers, or those considering "stepping up" to this breed will find a trove of useful information here, beginning with a concise history of the breed, and continuing through the Scottie's inroads and developments in America. Breeders and handlers will likewise find a hoard of useful information, as will "regular folks" who adore the breed.
It's a good read, and a bargain at its current price. If you're a Scottie Lover, or even considering this breed, you owe it to yourself to check this out.
Book Description
Illustrated with over 135 color photographs, this handsome book discusses the Scottish Terrier's ancestry and history, characteristics and breed standard and presents up-to-date, accurate information about health concerns, puppy selection, feeding and grooming the dog.

Brand New Beautiful Scottie Dog Collectibles Reference.......2001-11-01
Brand new, year 2001, 192 page volume is the 3rd in the series. It features 192 pages with every page loaded with large, sharp, full color photos. There's a nice introduction to the topic. A variety of Scottie collectibles are covered ranging from banks, bookends, doorstops, planters, statues, calendars and advertisements, to greeting cards, movies, and more. If you love Scotties, you'll really enjoy this book. Add it to your library.
Guide to Scottie Dog Collectables, Volume 1.......2000-06-01
This is a guide to the many items produced with the Scottie Dog (Scottish Terrier)image. The Scottie's heyday was in the 1930's when the registration with the AKC was at it's highest. Also in this same era, U.S. President, Franklin Roosevelt had a Scottish Terrier named Fala, who was world famous. Therefore a large amount of items were produced with the likeness of the Scottie in the past, and of course in the present as well. This book has a sampling of those items in various categories such as banks, bookends, paper products, figurines, smoking sets, tins, kitchen, etc. In fact almost anything you can think of, has at one time, probably been produced with a Scottie on it! This book also gives a dollar value to each item, usually in a range. The text is accompanied by good color photgraphs of the representative items. At the end of the book is a listing of books with Scotties, films with Scotties. The cover is an attractive plaid with photographs of various Scottie items. There has long been a large cult of Scottie collectors, finally there is a guide! One drawback however, is the noticeable increase in price for Scottie items since this book was published as more antique dealers now realize they can command higher prices for these items. Readers should also be advised that there is now a volume 2 in this series.
A wonderful book!.......1999-09-01
This book contains beautiful pictures of various Scottie Dog collectibles, some with manufacturers listed and all with values. I can not say enough wonderful things about this book. Anybody who is into dog collectibles must have this book. Anxiously awaiting the next edition! The only change I would suggest in future editions is to give more educational information about the manufacturers. Order this book, you will not be disappointed!
One fantastic book.......1997-10-25
If you are a scottie lover then this is the book for you! Even though this book isn't published yet I know the care and thought that went into this book. The author is a wonderful person to know and a true lover of scotties. This is a most have book for scottie collectors. It would be money well spent on your part.

Good Ideas.......2007-06-14
There are some good ideas in this book, he uses a lot of particle board. I need to remember that it is just shop workstations, cost is most important.
Workstations galore!!.......2007-05-15
Like previous reviewers I found this book extremely useful - very good sound practical ideas, a very clear approach to construction of workstations, excellent drawings and photos accompanied by easy to digest text. Additionally, and most important for someone who lives outside the USA and who fnds it hard to source even the most basic of fittings, its very good to be provided with designs based on easily obtainable and relatively inexpensive materials with a minimal amount of hardware.
This is one of those books where a sceptic might say 'I could have thought of that simple idea' but the truth is most folks don't and it takes someone like Mr. Proulx to stimulate one's mind.
I particularly like the idea of mobile workstations - whilst Mr Proulx may not have reinvented the wheel he has pcertainly provided a variety of ways of putting it to good use and in turn (no pun intended!) has helped me solved the layout problems I previously had in my relatively small workshop.
In summary, a great 'ideas' book and well worth the purchase.
Thanks to the writer and the editor - and of course to Amazon!
Good idea for small budget........2007-01-09
Each project is relatively simple to build and well described by step by step intructions.
Each step is illustrated by a picture.
Most are based on using MDF or MPB and simple hardware which make it perfect for the budget limited hobyist.
Every project have measurement both in inches and centimeters.
I would have given it 5 starts if I didn't face a problem while building the router table due to some missing explanation. However, I sent an email to the author and received an answer promptly.
Very practical - Sound building techniques.......2006-03-01
A sound and sensible approach to building workstations for your shop. If you have the perspective (as I do) that workstations are inthemselves "tools", you will find this book valuable.
woodshop workstations.......2005-08-16
This book was very well thought out. The plans are practical to build and useful. The projects will definitely improve most people's woodshop and you can do it on a relatively small budget.
