Very Informative
Not many people are familiar with this type of dog so when I purchased this book I was very pleased. It tells you everything you need to know about this breed of dog. I would recommend it to anyone who has this dog and is looking for more insight on health matters, grooming, behavior, etc.

Informative enough on the breed.
This is the only book that I know of about the Coton de Tulear. There are some informative things about the Coton, but there is also general information about caring for dogs that does not pertain to the Coton. Overall, though, it's better than nothing!

Terrific Coton Book
It is rare to find a book on my dog, a Coton De Tulear. This book was great and I will use for a reference in his care.
