THE UP TO DATE PEKINGESE AND ALL OTHER TOY DOGS By Lillian C.
Raymond-Mallock A VINTAGE DOG BOOKS CLASSIC REPRINT Originally
privately published by the author in 1924, followed by a later
revised and updated issue, this extremely scarce book on Toy Dogs
is both expensive and hard to find in any edition. VINTAGE DOG
BOOKS have republished the revised edition, using the original text
and photographs, as part of their CLASSIC BREED BOOKS SERIES. The
author was a much respected breeder and show winner, with her
Ashton-More Pekingese kennels producing numerous Champions. Her
book contains two hundred and ninety pages covering all aspects of
the Toy Dog. Many detailed chapters cover the History, Points, and
Standards of the following breeds: Griffon Bruxellois - Italian
Greyhounds - Japanese - Maltese - Pekingese - Pugs - Pomeranians -
Schipperkes - Toy Spaniels - Toy Terriers - Yorkshire Terriers -
Other comprehensive chapters discuss: Breeding. - Exhibiting. -
Feeding. - Rearing. - Nursing. - Grooming. - Whelping. - Diseases
and Treatment.- Breeders Directory. - Pekingese Names. Etc. The
contents are lavishly illustrated with numerous vintage photographs
of famous Toy Dogs from all the breeds, and also includes
advertisements for many early top breeders and their kennels. This
is a fascinating read for any Toy Dog enthusiast or historian of
the breeds., but also 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 originaltext and artwork.
