It is a good magazine though I haven't bought more than a handful of issues in well over a decade. Those I have bought usually had pictures or articles of my dogs or friends' dogs and I wanted them for posterity but the last two were the puppy issues which I used to prime my wife into getting a new pup. The last time she told me to skip the magazine and just buy the pup as that is what I'm going to do anyways. Showing her pup pictures just made her want to get a pup for herself.

Like all such magazines, they begin to repeat themselves every few years and after 40 some years of dogs I already have the subject matter which is applicable to me down. I'll pick up the mag from the shelf to read while killing time at the bookstore but that is about it for me.
