| Annie MacDonald (Shih Tsin) | N.Z. | This book is truly a treasure for the breed!!! Not a single doubt in my mind! Each page, article, I see is absolutely wonderful! NO ONE could NOT be delighted, I certainly am!! |
| Mary Mills (Fremar Chinse) | U.S.A. | We received the books in
today's mail. They are wonderful. ......Thank you so much they are great.
The book is just great. I got thru one whole book by just thumbing thru each
page. So much good info and I think you have covered about everything. I still can not make up my mind on what to vote on in the two volumes - everything is so great!!!! Thank you for all the hard work you have done for our wonderful Pekingese of the world. |

A quick note to let you know the
Millennium Book did come this week and we are quite pleased with
it..................the pictures, the artwork are lovely, we have not had
time to read the articles thoroughly yet, but what we have skimmed over
seem to be very good. Thanks again for a wonderful book on this lovely
breed!!!!!!!

I would so love
to use better wording to express my admiration-the Pekingese Book is all
one could dream of and much more beyond that.
Honestly I adore
every single piece, article and find it so enlightening and charming.
Indeed the breed deserves such a monumental work . My sincere
congratulations to you and thanks for getting me involved-I feel so proud
being a tiny part of it. I am so happy reading over and over again the
Polish review, looking at the photographs of my mother, my dearest old
friend of "Mitang" fame-thank you for all this.

U.S.A. | The book is wonderful and that you two must be so proud. Congratulations on a job so well done! |
| Jeanette Varnam (Varnak) | U.K. | I would like to order two
more sets of the Millennium Book. It is absolutely fantastic - I've never
seen such content in one book. I'm going to enjoy reading this for so many
years. Very best wishes, and thank you so much for bringing this book to us! |

Canada | My one major complaint about the Millennium Books would be that I cannot leave them alone. Have tried some self-discipline i.e. feeding the horses, then taking another look at the Book - and so through the day. The Books are absolutely wonderful in every way possible. |
| Kaesi Cook (Oakhill) | U.S.A | I LOVE my books!!!!!!!! My Ad is PERFECT and I am so impressed with the paper and the quality of the pages and artwork. WOW! You have outdone yourself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The Pekingese Breed has a true treasure in this book. Thank you for devoting so much time to our lovely breed. |
| Frances and Wally (Frawai) | Australia | As our daughter was on a world trip and Crufts was only part of it she did not get home until last weekend after touring South Africa. So we have had not much time yet but so far found the presentation beautifully done, love a lot of the Photos some good dogs some bad dogs on appearances but then a photo does not tell the whole story . So far only halfway reading the history of the kennels and finding it most interesting. Will let you know more when we have finished it please remember the are four of us and we all have to read it in turn!! |
| Hanna Lesze (Shantzi) | What a beautifully produced the Pekingese Millennium book is. I have been eagerly awaiting the publication and it surpassed all my expectations. The photo's of all the dogs. The Biographies of all the kennels and their owners. It is a feast of Knowledge and History. I have enjoyed every story and every photograph in the book. It is a book to keep and read over and over again. This book in my mind, surpasses all previous publications on the Peke! I congratulate the editorial staff and all the people who took part in assembling the contents it is a most professional job. , well done. Thank you sincerely for sharing it with me | |
| Patricia Davis (V.I.P.) | U.S.A. | Thank you so much for these
wonderful Books. I'm so proud to have my V.I.P. pekes represented and feel
this gives them immortality. What better tribute could they have than to be
seen and hopefully admired by Pekingese fanciers world wide in years to
come. Jean's and my ads are perfect - I am sure Jean will be as pleased and
proud as I am. I looked at these first, then read the Parti-colours and
Postcards sections I contributed to....I am very grateful to have been
included. The Books are wonderful and you did yourselves proud. The quality and workmanship is really nice, I would love a second set to keep in mint condition as I will put a lot of wear and tear on mine!!!! Your Book makes my dogs exist forever. Even after I've gone someone, somewhere will buy a vintage Peke Book in green and gold and see some V.I.P.'s - WOW!!!! |

I am very honoured to have
been able to be part of such an amazing book as the Millennium Book of the
Pekingese. I have never before seen any books to match the quality of
presentation, the scope of information or the ingeniousness of the format
of the Millennium Book of the Pekingese and the Millennium Book of the
King Charles Spaniel. I could not get over the plethora of information
which was presented so interestingly... the photos as well as the variety
of illustrations were wonderful! Thank you again!

| Mary Phillips (Beaulaines) | N.Z. | Now I'm going to report on my Millennium book I have read it from cover to cover. First the colour red used is disgusting all the beautiful reds are brown the printer should be shot immediately** :(( The information in here is wonderful and the people from around the world who I have never heard of is great and a big eye opener. Barbara's Rodari are all over the place never know when they will pop up. Credit to her breeding programme. Sheila's kids are so recognisable all over the place as well. Credit to her breeding programme as well. Hello Marge! and the loveliest snap of her kids! very cute that one. Jan was there with her winners. And as for the Thai lot stole the show with her beautiful snap Sand did. I'm lucky I have my own copy. Did I miss anyone?? The articles on the whites is very interesting. |

| Donna Bergeron (Acadiana) | U.S.A. | The book is wonderful!! Outstanding!! Better than expected!! Well worth the wait!! THANK YOU for all of pekedom!! A "peke person" could not have done better. |

U.S.A. | The Peke book arrived
today... and it is just 'super'! Love it! Of course I think the drawing of
Feathers, by Nancy Ross, is the best one in the book... but perhaps I am
just a bit partial! Loved the old Peke postcards you included! Please
remember if you do a Chin book I have old Chin postcards, trading cards and cigar bands in addition to art work and porcelain figurines. |
| Lois McIntosh (Pagoda Palace) | Canada | The beautiful print was a thrilling surprise, I want to get it framed as soon I can leave the Books alone. Everyone that sees them thinks that they are so well done. My friend with Shiba Inu's hopes a Millennium Book can be done for their breed. Again a sincere thank you for the prized print |
| Patty Davis (V.I.P.) | U.S.A. | Thank you so very, very much for the prints. I love them. My sister, who is not a Peke fan, said "Oh! those are really beautiful!" |
| Jean Hileman (Desert Jade) | I just finished Volume II of my Book and enjoyed every word, - and so many beautiful Pekingese. I am proud to be included |
