5.0 out of 5 stars The last word on dogs, November 13, 2007
This review is from: About.Com Guide To Owning A Dog: From Sit and Stay to Positive Play (About.com Guides) (Paperback)
If you have ever wondered where you could find a common sense approach to ALL things dog related, this is the book for you. It's not specific to a breed or dog related issue; it teaches you everything you need to know about owning a dog. The topics are as wide ranging as the basics of dog health and diet to well mannered dogs to traveling with your dog. The writing is clear and concise without being overly simplistic or overly technical. This is the book that all dog owners should own.
