Must Haves IMO: Joan Briggs' Bichon Frise books

[Sarahcat]

I must agree with you - these books are the best!  In fact, reading them help to encourage me to get my second bichon. It's been awhile, I may just have to dig them out and reread them - again!

I have a copy of Joan Briggs last book ( and understand she is NOT going to write any more).  It's called "The 5th Bichon" and it was given to me by a good friend along with some other "Bichon"-related stuff to sell to raise money for Toby's cataract op. Sadly it never sold. If anyone would like it I will post it to them.

I've read all Joans books and loved them, some of mine are still winging their way around the World I believe.  Sad that she won't be writing another.

I enjoyed them as well.  Passed mine to Sandrra if I remember correctly.

I have just come across this thread and think these books look fabulous! I am trying to figure how much $120 US dollars would be in NZ dollars and how much they would cost to order from the Uk to get to NZ 
All those newies who havent seen Ed reading a goodnite story to Bianca should take a look. So very sweet!

Lorraine i dont read books but Lainey gave me a loan of her Joan Briggs books a few years ago.

They are really good, i loved reading about how she got her first bichon and all the lovely walks they went on. Then she was bitten by the bichon bug and one was not enough, then they got involved in rescue. I could just picture some of the things happening and visited their website and read about their fluffs there 
They make you    and

This was a walk down memory lane ....... can't believe I first posted this in 2005!

Lorraine, you can use this website www.xe.com to do currency conversion .  US$120 is about NZ$170.  It would be money well-spent IMO .  Derek & Joan Briggs do a lot for Bichon Frise Rescue in the U.K. .  The books have many stories about the rescues that go through their doors.  You'll also learn how Chas (bless him, now at Rainbow Bridge ) does home-checks of potential adopters.

I said in Susan's/Missy's Mother's Day present thread that I don't buy books anymore (ie. fiction / non-fiction books).  But I buy Bichon books and will keep them for eternity.  Bianca has read has been read to .... the last book in the series.  She enjoys a good bedtime Bichon story!
