Bulldogs and Bulldog Breeding (A Vintage Dog Books Breed Classic)
Originally published in 1905, this extremely rare early work on the
bulldog is almost impossible to find in its first edition. VINTAGE
DOG BOOKS have republished it, using the original text and
photographs, as part of their CLASSIC BREED BOOKS series. The
author was a highly respected breeder of the day. The book's 164
pages cover all aspects of the Bulldog. Beginning with the history
of the breed, it moves on to discuss buying, breeding and showing
amongst many other topics. It also features over 60 photographs of
champion bulldogs of the day. Included in the original text are a
number of adverts featuring stud dogs and dog food - all with
additional photographs of bulldogs. This is a fascinating read for
any Bulldog enthusiast or historian of the breed but also contains
much information that is still useful and practical today. Many of
the earliest breed books, particularly those dating back to the
1900s, are now extremely scarce and very expensive. VINTAGE DOG

quality, modern editions. These editions are republished using the
