Customer Reviews

No good!
This book is nothing more than the published glorification of the Chihuahua breed. Not in-depth at all and has absolutely no value to someone who wants to take SERIOUS care of the animal. Might as well title it "The Essential Dog". Very general look at caring for dogs - as a whole! "Essentially" an unnecessary purchase.

HORRIBLE WASTE
Well, if you looking for a book on Chihuahua's, this is certainly NOT the book for you. Like a previous reviewer states, the book doesn't contain any useful information at all. It is all fluff. Anyone that knows how to search the Internet will find the same info. I would not waste your money on this useless book.

The Essentia Chihuahua
