Nice book

Very nice book, with many information one may need regarding dogs. From grooming to illnesses, almost every kind of parasites, all breeds and their common problems. Especially beginners, will get the most from this book. If you are looking for a practical book regarding your little friend, you will love this book.

A small book that contains a lot of useful information.

This is an excellent book that will inform readers of what exactly is involved with caring for a dog. This includes exercise, grooming, and health care. It has clear precise photography of parasites and infectious diseases along with a description of how these diseases are passed along and what you can do to prevent it. The book includes a question and answer section to a variety of problems "real" people come across. There is much more to this book. If you are looking for a dog, you might find the breed profile useful. A large variety of breeds are listed. The profile includes life expectancy, adult height and weight, temperment, and known health problems. It also includes basic obedience training tips. I bought this book because of the many topics that were covered. Unlike most books, I found this book to give useful information and knowledge in a small, cut to the chase, real life situations.
