My wife has spent a lifetime showing purebred dogs with candor, humor, and hard-earned wisdom, but here we look beyond ribbons and titles to uncover the politics, passion, heartbreak, triumphs, and remarkable dogs that shaped a lifetime in the world of purebred competition. Part memoir, part guide, and part tribute, it is a love letter to the sport, a cautionary tale about its challenges, and a lasting legacy for future generations of dog enthusiasts. I prefer Brittanys from field trial lines, big ranging dogs with no whoa.
Brittanys are strong dogs having “maximum qualities in a minimum of size.”
