Customers say
Customers find this Cocker Spaniel handbook comprehensive and useful, particularly for first-time owners, with extensive information and handy tips. The book is well-written, easy to read, and customers consider it a great value for money. They appreciate the coverage of the breed, with one customer noting it covers both show and working Cocker Spaniels. While the content is compelling, several customers mention the lack of color photos in the book.
