No I don't know the author personally but I have emailed him about the book and he seems like an honest person.

I ordered 2 copies of the book and he takes Pay Pal which is pretty safe. I always like to try to support those who write about the dogs. It's a lot of work to put out a book.

Wow, Limey, 9 copies, that's a strong support for the book! Good for you!
