If you are a lover of "cozy" mysteries (those without blatant discriptive violence), this is a great series. Susan Conant is a skilled writer with a true gift for narrative. Even if you have no interest in dog training or the dog show world, you will find yourself "falling" into this world and having a great experience. If possible, I would recommend reading the series in order. There is great humor, excitement, and wonderful detecting.

This was the first of this series I read and I really enjoyed it. It talked about dogs, but wasn't cutesie, and the mystery stayed a mystery-- I didn't figure it out right away. It does talk about how some people are mean to dogs, but doesn't preach-- it just happens in the story. I really liked it
