The Dog Encyclopedia

Great photos. Thick, heavy covers and pages. It explains the history of each breed plus the temperament and housing requirements. Lots of categories and pictures. Info about some positive reinforcement training and breeding, etc. definitely would recommend and/or buy again!

It was a great gift for my husband who is a dog enthusiast. He loves the book provides variety of information about dogs. He reads the book with our kids before and it’s the cutest thing ever. Definitely worth its value! Also, what a coincidence! We have a GSP/Viszla mix and Dalmatian which are in the front and back of the book!

This book provides clear photos and basic information on a few hundred breeds of dogs. I was worried that it would not represent enough of the breeds, perhaps only featuring one or another of the kennel clubs, but I'm glad to say that it is more than sufficient. Owners looking for a new dog may find the volume lacking in information on breed traits, but I really don't think that it's realistic to get all of that from an encyclopedia. Rather, this book excels at helping someone identify breeds, explore relationships among breeds, and such of that. There is an introduction with some neat information on dogs (their evolutionary journey, anatomy, etc.) and a concluding section on dog care (which I admittedly found unneccesary in an encyclopedia, but I won't take off for the filler pages). Also, very importantly, the index in the back is organized very well; looking up a dog breed there will find every reference to the breed listed in normal font, and the breed's main page listed in bold. This means that it is easy to find a breed by name, and also easy to find where that breed may be discussed in comparison to other breeds. Final note, this book is much larger than I thought it would be.

Awesome! Pictures are fascinating! My 12-year-old loved it!!! Great gift for preteens/ teens or even adults who love dogs!

This encyclopedia is excellent. It is filled with high-quality images and a lot of detail about different dog breeds. Everyone who's seen it always comments on how much they enjoy it and several people have purchased their book themselves after seeing the original one I purchased.

Stumbled on this book at vet oncologist. After good diagnosis for my fur baby, came home and ordered one for myself. I like to know from where breeds originated and why a particular breed was developed - hunt small game, strictly companion, etc. this book provides a quick summary plus beautiful pics. I plan to get another as a gift for a relative.

PLEASE READ BEFORE PURCHASING!! 🫶🏻🫶🏻 This is awesome book, it’s soft and easy to understand/read. I read Cesar Millan and he had one as a kid and this is just like it! I love it. 🫶🏻 I think my cat likes it more than me haha 🤣

This is a wonderful book for those wanting to get an overview of dog breeds, and the photos are simply stunning. I love DK products because they're always very detailed and easy to use.
