FYI

I bought "The Working Pit Bull" by Diane Jessup. I haven't read it all yet, but it seems to be a great book - educational and promotes the right image for our breed. It has good pictures too.

educational and promotes the right image for our breed. So what's the "right" image?

I'm no Diane Jessup fan, please feel free to elaborate on the above statement^

33mta3 - Thanks!

simms - The right image is a positive image. I don't know much about this author, but that is what she seems to portray in this book.

simms - The right image is a positive image. I don't know much about this author, but that is what she seems to portray in this book.D.J. past is no secret, as well as her present day actions. I dont trust a single word out of that womans mouth, she says one thing one day, another the next. One thing to "this" group of people and another to "those" people. Got an answer for everything though, LOL!

I think the lawdogs organization is beneficial, but thats about it. The way she's pissed all over our breed countless times before, and undoubtly, will continue to do so make the positive contributions few and far between.

Anyways, I dont want this to be another D.J. thread, just replying as to why most of us dont take much credibility in anything she says.

Good books, that depends what your looking for in a book?
