Another one off the card and completely proofread.

Here you all is an easy validation.  All it needs is a spell check but 
warning now, British Spellings are in evidence although the book was 
published in the U.S.

The Complete Vizsla
By Gay Godligh SP

The Vizsla is a hunting dog used by Southeastern Guide Dogs Inc. as a breed 
for guide work and this is one of the more informabitve on the breed, so a 
valuable book for the collection.  Especially when understanding this dog's 
personality and how it would apply to training which the author discusses in 
good detail.  Quite fascinating.

See below synopsis:
From the Book Jacket:
The Vizsla is the aristocrat of the gundogs. It is an ideal worker, 
combining all three disciplines: hunting, pointing and retrieving. It is 
also making a name for itself in the show ring, and in this highly 
comprehensive book, Gay Gottlieb traces the Vizsla's origins in Hungary and 
charts its spread throughout Europe and the rest of the world. She reveals 
the art of training a dog for show and field, the Breed Standard is analyzed 
in detail and breeding principles are discussed in full. There is additional 
information on the wirehaired Vizsla.
Gay Gottlieb is one of the leading breeders and exhibitors of Vizslas in 
Britain, and has won the Top Breeder award for a record of nine years. To 
date she has bred twenty-two Show Champions, three of which became full 
Champions, winning honors in the field as well as in the show ring. She has 
bred the Crufts Best of Breed winner six times in seven years, and won both 
dog and bitch Challenge Certificates three times. She bred Sh. Ch. 
Russetmantle Bee, the first Vizsla in Britain to win a Gundog Group. Gay's 
first full Champion, which she bred and
handled herself, was Ch. Russetmantle Troy, whose progeny are in many 
pedigrees today. However, her most successful dog was Ch. Russetmantle 
Quiver, whom she bred, trained and handled, both in the field and in the 
show ring. Quiver won a total of twenty-two Challenge Certificates, worked 
on shoots for four seasons and competed in Field Trials.
Gay Gottlieb is an international Championship Show judge, and in 1993 she 
will be judging Vizslas at Crufts. Her kennel, which carries the famous 
Russetmantle prefix, is known worldwide.

Dog ownership is like a rainbow.
 Puppies are the joy at one end.
 Old dogs are the treasure at the other.
