Hannah James - Excellent reference book!

As experienced 'motorhome skiers' we are planning our first adventure with our young dogs and have had a lot of anxieties about the whole thing. Jackie's story telling and informative approach has not only relieved me of some of my anxieties but really inspired me! Most interesting is that it's a thoroughly good read by a very eloquent writer - a real find of an author in a market that is dominated by drivel - a REAL writer! Thank you! Can't wait to read the rest of the library! Hannah James of Winterised.com motorhome ski website on https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/customer-reviews/R1CQAUE5OZKI1I

Charlotte - A Really Fun and Interesting Book

Pups on Piste is a really fun and interesting book. It's the second book I read from this author and I enjoyed it very much! While reading this book, you feel like you're on a holiday yourself, together with the author, her husband and the four dogs. This time, they're going on a skiing holiday in Italy for three months. They encounter many adventures and some problems. They also meet new people with interesting stories. Another thing I liked about this book is that the author gives useful skiing tips. I would definitely recommend this book! I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. Review on Goodreads.

Rebecca H. - What an adventure!

Wow! What an incredibly adventurous pair Jackie and her husband Mark are. Wonderful descriptions of their three month holiday in Italy where they can go skiing off piste. I was holding my breath reading about some of their pursuits on the slopes. Being a person who fell down on a nursery slope and never attempted to ski again I am in awe of those who hurtle down mountains for fun! I loved the author’s beautiful descriptions and her sense of humour. It was so lovely to read about their four dogs who were on holiday with them. Great fun. Full of information for those who are skiers , especially the top tips. I guarantee they will make you laugh out loud https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/customer-reviews/R2V2KFZW7K2T5P

Kindle Custom P.R. - An exciting book

Great to read about the author's time shared between skiing and being with the couple's dogs, when having a three month's winter holiday. . A great book, full of interest and exciting skiing. Also interesting walks with the dogs. No caravan this time. I am looking forward to a book on Poland when they travel there. Jacqueline Lambert's books are always so readable. For me it is always just one more chapter before I put the book down. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/customer-reviews/R1Z6MV1M7M9UMF

Bonaire, for ever - A joy to read

A good read. Just the right book to read at night. As I have never skied the Alps, it was as if I was there. https://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/RN42H6476WXTZ

Beth Haslam Vine Voice Loved this book and learned lots!

As an animal lover, I was drawn to the book title. Once I began reading, I became equally engrossed in another key theme. This book describes the adventures of the author and her husband during their three months in Monte Rosa, Italy, with their four dogs. Both avid skiers, they wanted to experience some of the best off-piste conditions in the world. I was fascinated by the technicalities surrounding this form of skiing, the security measures and aptitudes required. I was transported to this breathtakingly beautiful location by the author’s superb descriptions and gripped by the dangers they often faced (Jackie is a brave lady!). Their dogs, very much part of the family, are a delight. I had never heard of a cavapoo before, but after reading about their escapades, I’m now an undying fan. I learned much about this extraordinary part of Italy, loved the tales of the family exploits and adored their dogs. I look forward to reading more from Jackie Lambert. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/customer-reviews/R1DD7QCPJNY2NH

Jan P. Skiing is not something I'm interested in!

I chose this rating as skiing is not something I have ever been interested in ,so was interested reading this as a travelogue . Loved the dog interest and this is very informative for anyone thinking of doing something similar . Well written tongue in cheek in places and transports you easily to the mountains and valleys . https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/customer-reviews/R3CEAQERWV87QX

“Highly recommended for dog lovers, ski enthusiasts & adventurous travellers!” Louise Capper, Waggy Tales book and dog blog

Jackie and Mark share a passion for planks. When they married, just thirty-seven weeks after they first met, their ambition was to spend a full season in the Alps.
Pups on Piste is the true story of their first three months in Italy’s Monte Rosa, with their four dogs, Cavapoos (Cavalier / Poodle cross) Kai, Rosie, Ruby and Lani. A little-known resort tucked under the second highest peak in Western Europe, one ski magazine placed Monte Rosa in ‘The Top 5 Off Piste Destinations In The World.’

Once there, they get lost, stranded, conduct experiments on the edge of control and take a Back-Country Ski Course in which one instructor’s advice is, “Don’t miss the turn or you’ll go over a cliff.”

Join them in legendary powder, where you will learn a multitude of invaluable lessons about skiing, winter walkies, the revenge of the snow chains, surviving a Viking invasion and how to remove snow balls from the belly of a dog.
If you like skiing, dogs, armchair travel, humour and a peppering of facts, this memoir is for you!
