The Dog Breeder's Guide to Successful Breeding and Health Management

Very informative book. I just had a litter of 9 pups and through using this book I was better prepared to deal with any issues. The whelping went very well. I would definately recommend this book to anyone.

With so many titles to choose from, I am happy to simplify your search by recommending this book. This has an easy to find index, complete information for each phase of the breeding process, and an in depth discussion of problems, remedies, and the total cycle of choosing the mate for your dog, to happy healthy puppies.

If you breed dogs once or many times, you need to have this book in your library. Our vet receommended we purchase it prior to our 10th litter. Even though we have many books on breeding, this by far is the best. It is no nonsense & very specific. I am very glad we purchased it.

in a well cross referenced format. It is easy to find what you need in a hurry. It is very detailed with just enough physiology and anatomy for the details to make sense. I used it during my last whelping and found it very useful. It was also useful for breeding timing and care of newborn pups.

I have many books on dog breeding on my shelves. This one is different in several ways. It is written in textbook fashion with a FAQ section at the front of and a "Test your understanding" quiz at the end of each chapter. It uses color photographs to show you what the author is talking about when describing specific conditions or situations. It is written in laymans language making it easy to understand and yet it is comprehensive enough for the long time breeder to learn something new. The author has the educational and practical credentials required to write this type of book and uses a style of writing that's easy to read without being condescending. In my opinion this book is a must have for any dog breeder and I strongly recommend it.
