Golden Retriever - Gertrude Fischer 1984 304 pages The golden Retriever"s position in the world of purebred dogs is a true modern success story. Universally celebrated as the ideal family dog, the Golden demonstrates his worth wherever there is a need for a dog of intelligence and beauty. As a field trial performer and personal shooting dog, the Golden is a peerless sporting companion. He shines equally in obedience trials at every level of competition and is a great favorite with exhibitors, judges and handlers in the conformation ring as an unspoiled, natural show dog. This versatile character is duly honored in The New Complete Golden Retriever, the breed"s own story told by one of its most faithful friends. Gertrude Fischer, veteran fancier, breeder and commentator knows the joys of golden ownership in many forms and passes her knowledge, experience and love for the breed along in this bright update of her great classic. Along with Mrs. Fischer"s wonderful insights are contributions by some of the greatest names in the breed - Elma Stonex, Rachel Page Elliott and Marjorie B. Perry, Forrest L. Flashman, M.D., Ann F. Walters, Dora Gostyn, Jeannie Fox, Edith E. Munneke and Jennifer Bassing. Together these authorities bring you the best presentation on the breed ever offered in print. Everything important is included - history, development, the standard, hunting, field trials, obedience, showing, care of the #@$%, puppies, the Golden"s role as a leader for the blind, pleasures and legends, children and Goldens and more surprises. And with all this is a happy profusion of beautiful photographs and drawings showing Goldens doing all the things they do so well.
