I have many books on dog breeding on my shelves. This one is different in several ways. It is written in textbook fashion with a FAQ section at the front of and a "Test your understanding" quiz at the end of each chapter. It uses color photographs to show you what the author is talking about when describing specific conditions or situations. It is written in laymans language making it easy to understand and yet it is comprehensive enough for the long time breeder to learn something new.

The author has the educational and practical credentials required to write this type of book and uses a style of writing that's easy to read without being condescending.

In my opinion this book is a must have for any dog breeder and I strongly recommend it.

If you breed dogs once or many times, you need to have this book in your library. Our vet receommended we purchase it prior to our 10th litter. Even though we have many books on breeding, this by far is the best. It is no nonsense & very specific. I am very glad we purchased it.

in a well cross referenced format. It is easy to find what you need in a hurry. It is very detailed with just enough physiology and anatomy for the details to make sense. I used it during my last whelping and found it very useful. It was also useful for breeding timing and care of newborn pups.

This is a good book that covers a wide range of subjects in aclear & concise manner. The beginner will learn a lot and the more advanced reader will still benefit from reading this book.

With so many titles to choose from, I am happy to simplify your search by recommending this book.
This has an easy to find index, complete information for each phase of the breeding process, and an in depth discussion of problems, remedies, and the total cycle of choosing the mate for your dog, to happy healthy puppies.

Very informative book. I just had a litter of 9 pups and through using this book I was better prepared to deal with any issues. The whelping went very well. I would definately recommend this book to anyone.

This is a great resource for anyone breeding and rearing dogs. I used it constantly throughout gestation and even during delivery of my Standard Poodle puppies. It is detailed and informative like a textbook, and some of the material was over my head, but overall I found the info invaluable and will continue to study the items I do not understand and learn more about those topics. I would definitely, 100% recommend this to anyone who is even considering breeding. It covers everything from nutrition for the female preparing for breeding to post-whelp and beyond. Worth every penny!

This book was recommended to me by a vet and she was right! A great book to have with all the do's and don'ts of breeding and what to know before, during, and after!

This was suggested to me by a repro vet for my first show dogs whelping experience. It is smartly written and extremely informational and instructional. Lightning fast shipping, and worth every penny!!
