2 comments about The New Cairn Terrier (Dog Breed Books).
- This book is great for anyone who has a Cairn terrier with good blood lines. You can look up the kennels and breeders that produced the champions in the lines of your dog. Good reference for anyone wishing to find a top notch breeder.
- At first I was quite disappointed with this book because I wanted a more complete overview of the cairn terrier. If you are looking at the history and bloodlines of the cairn, this book is for you. However, if you are looking for a general overview look for a different book. I did in the end find this book useful when I began looking at pedigrees of prospective cairns, and due to reading, the names were familiar.

- This book must have been the "IT" book for breeders and alike in its time. I am so happy being able to get hold of this book and sometimes carefully reading a chapter. For a cairn enthusiast this is a must for the collection library.

5 comments about The New Owner's Guide to Cairn Terriers (New Owner's Guide To...).
- this book is really good. i loved the variety in pictures (and so did my friends). it has the right amount of information and is organized well. i got this book one day before i bought my cairn terrier which i'd been considering getting and the information here really confirmed that this was the right dog for me. i am also going to get a training book but for those wanting to know about this breed this is a complete book. i highly recommend this !!
- Considering the status of the author's kennel, I found the book to be a let-down. It honestly seemed like a generic book on dogs used as a template with only an added Cairn-specific paragraph or two at most per chapter. In the majority of the text it looks like the words "the dog" were just replaced with "the Cairn Terrier".
I was looking for much more from this author. For example in the chapter covering health issues, the advice on routine care for a Cairn's ears is "ask your veterinarian". Gee thanks! Isn't there any advice you could print to educate me as well? My vet isn't a Cairn breeder or owner, he really doesn't know a lot of breed-specific issues and that's what I'd hoped this book could provide. The same with grooming. The book just says that the Cairn is the "lazy man's terrier" as far as coat. Very little is given about the unique care and maintenance a Cairn's coat requires except a discussion of a name brand of stripping knife.
The photographs are lovely and abundant. The text is well written, and good basic information, it's just not deep with Cairn detail. There are a few spots where the author's love and knowledge of the breed shines out, for example in the discussion of obedience that says a Cairn's response to obedience commands ranges from "no" to "make me" to "make it worth my while".
All in all, a book worth having on my shelf but if I was using it to evaluate whether a Cairn was the dog for me or as my only reference for behavior and care issues, I'd feel I didn't have enough material.
- I purchased this book after adopting a one year old Cairn Terrier. I feel the book has been very helpful in giving me insight into the breed in terms of training, grooming and socialization. A bonus is the beautiful photos found throughout the book. I would recommend this to all new Cairn owners or those contemplating a Cairn puppy.
- This book has a little background of the Cairn, but does not really help the owner to work with his pet. It lacks details on how to truly care for the breed.
It is a good overview for a perspective owner, but not much help if you have one.
- Ms. Murray has lived with cairns and loved them for a long long time. She knows what she is talking about. Other have complained that the book was a bit generic but if you read the title, you will notice that it is geared to the NEW Owner's not experienced dog folk. So the sections on which end to feed are needed.
She does have her own way of doing things but it works for her and her dogs...and will work for the novice as well so until you learn enough to write your own book, this one is great!!!! And so is Sandra...

- As the owner of two Cairns, these calendars are prefect for Christmas gifts every year. The photos are outstanding, and the calendars are perfect for keeping track of appointments, due dates, etc.

- this book is one of the best books on the market in years. It is extremely well illustrated with gorgeous photos. It's easy to read and understand and yet is as comprehensive as the Cairn Terrier is complex. It belongs on the holiday list of every current or prospective Cairn owner.
- This book is a must for all cairn enthusiasts, breeder and pet owner alike. Very comprehensive, covering all aspects of care and breeding. The quality of the hundreds of glossy, colored pictures is amazing. If you only have money to buy one cairn book, this is the one!
- Unless you are going to breed or show, don't buy this book. Three of the chapters aren't even written by the author. Breeding history and standards make up most of the book. The functional sections give very little useful information.
- This book was very special to me. Although my beautiful Cairn never entered a show ring, she was from a line of champion Cairns. Her grandparents' Sharolaine's Kalypso, Copperglen Fame n Fortune and Nighfalls Encore are all featured prominently in this book. I lost her recently at the age of 15 and it's nice to have a published book chronicling her family history. This is a wonderful history of the breed with beautiful photographs and lots of useful information on health, grooming and training. I highly recommend it to all Cairn owners.
- Filled with lots of good information and interesting background material. Too many repetitive photos of Cairns in "Show" poses. Text was very readable and accessible.

- This book is fantastic, I held off on buying the first book that popped up on a Cairn search because the review mentioned how impersonal it was once they actually read it. I'm very glad I decided to get this book instead. Not only does it include what to generally expect when buying a puppy and raising a dog, the author also supplies his own personal insights into what to expect when buying this particular breed. He follows the life of your new Cairn from puppyhood to seniorhood. This book is fantastic and it's something to keep as a reference throughout the life of your new friend.

5 comments about Cairn Terriers (Complete Pet Owner's Manual).
- I was really happy with the book. There were topics not mentioned in the larger books. The pictures of the Cairns are really good.
- This book wasn't exactly what I thought it would be like. It is very short and doesn't have lots of specific details. It is however an exellent source overall. One great thing about it not having lots of details is that it is short and very easy to read the entire thing rather than just skim certain sections. I found the grooming section very helpful and informative. However I would have liked a little more information in the training section. Also I would have liked more details in handling those difficult puppy moments such as when they try to bite. I loved that this book is completely tailored to the cairn terriers rather than it being a general dog book. I definitely was not disappointed.
- This is a great book! I love the pictures, and it's a very good book for any Cairn owner, whether a newbie or not. I highly recommend it.
- because it contains the most concise information and is also a good buy. When I sell my Cairn Terrier puppies, I always send a Barrow's Cairn Terrier book. The book is included with the purchase of the puppy to help the owner answer all their questions in regard to their new Cairn Terrier puppy. I also consult it myself for answers to questions. The pictures of the Cairn Terriers in the book are of good quality and variety.
- to anyone with a cairn you should own this book. Very enteresting, explains history and typical behavior. and really cute pictures
