The Dog
Author: Linda P. Case
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1118701208
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 428
Book Description
Dogs are a part of nearly 40 percent of United States households. With this in mind, author Linda P. Case has written the definitive textbook on dogs and their care. Completely updated and revised, the second edition of The Dog covers four areas of compelling interest: the bond between dogs and humans, canine behavior, canine health and disease, and canine nutrition. Aiming to enhance the human-dog bond, author Case uses clear, understandable writing to explain selective breeding, training principles, solution to common behavior problems, diet and nutrition, and preventative health care. Case liberally uses distinctive figures and tables, current references plus suggested readings, and a thorough glossary to aid in comprehension. More in-depth that most dog books, The Dog will prove to be an indispensable tool for undergraduate companion animal courses, veterinary technician courses, and dog care/training courses. In addition, it will serve as a valuable resource for professional breeders, trainers, exhibitors, and veterinary clinicians.

Be The Dog
Author: Steve Duno
Publisher: Sterling Publishing Company
ISBN: 9781402722837
Category : Pets
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
A well-trained dog rewards you with a kind of love and loyalty you won't get anywhere else. But the secret of this relationship is not in the dog; it's in the owner. Here's a revolutionary approach to dog training based on observing what “natural” dog owners do instinctively— that is, they intuitively understand the canine mind and relate to a dog by thinking like a dog. Readers who follow their example will discover that, instead of trying to outsmart the dog, they'll build up his IQ. Instead of trying different forms of punishment, they'll enrich his environment. Together, owner and dog will throw away the old ideas of obedience and control, and build a deeper relationship based on mutual respect.
