THE RETRIEVER: ITS POINTS; MANAGEMENT; TRAINING and DISEASES. By
Frank Townend Barton. M.R.C.V.S. A VINTAGE DOG BOOKS CLASSIC
REPRINT Originally published in London 1907, this scarce early work
on the Retriever is both expensive and hard to find in its first
edition. VINTAGE DOG BOOKS have now republished it using the
original text and artwork as part of their CLASSIC BREED BOOKS
series. One hundred and thirty four pages contain seventeen
detailed chapters: - General Management. - External Parts and
Conformation. - The Flat-Coated Retriever. - The Labrador. - The
Curly-Coated Retriever. - Management of the Stud Dog. - Care of
Brood Bitch and Rearing Puppies. - Breaking Retrievers. - Liability
of Breakers and Trainers. - Diseases and Injuries affecting
Retrievers. (9 chapters) etc.The author was a highly respected
breeder of the day and wrote several other important dog books.
This is a fascinating read for any Retriever enthusiast or
historian, andalso contains much information that is still useful
and practical today. Many of the earliest dog breed books,
particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now
extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. VINTAGE DOG BOOKS are
republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality,
modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
