REVIEWS
“Absolutely amazing book! Author gives you all the details & instruction you need in order to provide the best care for your new French Bulldog! Best choice!” LEONARDO BEDOYA, USA
“A consistently authoritative voice on bringing up your dog! Linda Whitwam is emerging as the main authority to go to when buying a dog. She certainly knows her stuff and the information is set out in easy to digest paragraphs. Advice and information in Linda's book on French bulldogs is down to earth and very readable and all you need to know is there. It is the same sort of book you're delighted to receive when you've just had a baby yourself - you keep going back to it to "see what Linda says!!" I can't recommend this book highly enough," ALMONDGIRL, UK
“Great book, five stars! I am a first-time dog owner, let alone a first-time Frenchie owner, so I found this book beyond helpful and easy to understand,” NICK L, CALIFORNIA, USA
“We thought we basically knew what we were getting into since we had an English Bulldog for 10½ years & several friends with French Bulldogs, but still wanted to read more about the breed, & I'm so happy we did, because we didn't know the half of it. This is a great book for anyone who is considering adding a French Bulldog to their family, or anyone who has already added one & needs to figure out what to do,” CRAZY4SHERMAN, ORANGE COUNTY, USA
