A-Z of Dog Diseases and Health Problems: Signs, Diagnoses, Causes, Treatment is an excellent resource for all dog owners. It provides helpful tips and answers to common problems, as well as signs which signal the need for a trip to the vet. Best of all, it's written in an easy to follow format and explained in terms that the average dog owner can comprehend - even when you're in a panic from Fluffy's incessant whining at 3:00am. In fact, the veterinary clinic where I work frequently uses it to help dog owners understand their pet's problem. I'd recommend keeping it right next to your doggie first aid kit!

If you are a dog owner, this is a must. It is clearly written and very easy to read.

Even if you are a long time dog owner, this book will educate you on some complex health problems of our canine friends. Would recommend for all canine owners.

We just adopted a 2 year old black lab named Abbott. My husband has always grown up with dogs, but, not me. I have had cats, and this was all new to me!

So, it was time to get precise information, and this book is essential for dog owners. The books deals with signs and symptoms, diagnosis, causes of disease, and treatments. The handy format is easy to use and is concise. All types of breeds are discussed, which I found very interesting. The disease pathology is professional and informative enough to satisfy consultation.

A must for new and old time dog owners!

This book was written in the U.K. and I found the writing is slanted toward information not pertaining as much to breeds in the U.S. The book was filled with grammatical and typographical errors, and it is out-of-date for anyone ordering in the year 2000 or later. The A-Z descriptions were trite, and I was unable to find many things I was looking for, such as Inflammatory Bowel Disease and other current diagnoses. Sadly, this book was of no help to me.

We were contemplating dog adoption. We filled out papers, purchased food and dog items. Once we were at the counter, we learned that the dog had some form of skin irritation and it had to go to the VET before we could adopt. WOW! This made us think we really needed to learn more about dog illnesses. We got the book! The reference that refers to female dogs (Bxtch) had to be explained to our young son's. Therefore, the book doesn't seem to be for everyone. Although, it is very informative.
