What reviewers are saying...
DOG WORLD
“This book has become a classic, and deservedly so. Spira explains every word and phrase used in breed standards around the world clearly and simply, and the text makes reference to actual standards where the terms are used. Canine Terminology is also beautifully illustrated with pen-and-ink drawings by Mary and Peggy Davidson. This is a must-have reference book for every breeder and exhibitor and has long been the definitive book in its field.”

| great reference book, December 27, 2006 |
| Reviewer: |
| I first learned about this excellent reference book when I attended an AKC Judges' Institute. This book explains the terminology used in many breed standards, even many breed-specific terms. I consider this book a 'must have' for anyone seriously interested in dogs. |

| A great book for novices in deciphering the hidden meaning in the wording of breed standards and in 'dog speak' around the show ring. |
