Originally published in 1896 and updated in 1934. The object of
this book is to assist the prospective dog owner in choosing their
dog. Firstly it points out the uses and peculiarities in the
dispositions of the different varieties of dogs, secondly, their
respective properties; thirdly, to give an approximate idea of the
size of puppies at various periods in their life; and lastly, to
select from a litter those puppies which are likely to mature into
the best specimens. Detailed and illustrated chapters provide much
advice on some 100 breeds: Sporting Dogs - Gundogs - Terriers - Non
Sporting Dogs - Toy Dogs - Lesser Known Foreign Breeds. The book is
illustrated with typical specimens of nearly all breeds. Many of
the earliest dog books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s
and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive.
Home Farm Books are republishing many of these classic works in
affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text
and artwork.
