Beagle: An Owner's Guide to a Happy Healthy Pet

This is a great book for Beagle owners who want to learn some practical information and advice about their pet. There aren't tons of archaic black and white photos of former dog show champions past posing on the winner's stand. The color photos are up-to-date, delightful, and show Beagles doing what they do best - having fun and being cute! There are no long, tedious chapters on "Grooming for the Show Ring," "Training Hounds for the Field," or "Breeding Your Beagle" - Just lots of tips, suggestions and sound advice for keeping your pet fit, healthy and happy. Of the four major Beagle books I've read ("The Beagle" by Marcia Foy & Anna Nicholas; "The New Beagle" by Judith M. Musladin; and "Beagles" by Beverly Pisano) this book is clearly the best for owners in the "real, everyday world."
