I am excited to introduce a groundbreaking concept!
Recognising the critical importance of breed education, especially since no breed specialist has published a commercially available book for around 15 - 20 years, I have decided to safeguard some of my favourite breed books, many of which are now out of print, amidst the decline of traditional publishing routes.
For this reason, I have established the 'LaRoyal Library'—the first dedicated Breed Specialist Library. This pioneering library aims to preserve the breed's heritage through the written word.
While the collection is currently small, it is highly specific and readily available for loan to any breed enthusiast. This initiative is designed to ensure that invaluable knowledge and history remain accessible to all who are passionate about the breed.
