Product Description
A classic available again! A beautifully illustrated glossary of ALL terms used in the Breed Standards for purebred dogs worldwide. Terms are clearly defined, with reference to specific breeds where the term is used, and most are illustrated with detailed pen & ink drawings by Mary & Peggy Davidson. This is an invaluable reference book for ANYONE involved in the sport of purebred dogs at any level - breeders, exhibitors (conformation, agility, obedience, etc.), judges, as well as veterinarians, vet techs, or vet students. *This is a reprint, not a revision or update!
From the Inside Flap
"Harry Spira’s CANINE TERMINOLOGY, is in my opinion destined to become the definitive work in its field. Dr. Spira’s writing is clear, concise and easy to understand…his explanations are helped immeasurably by the artists’ total brilliance…The quality of Margaret and Marian Davidson’s drawing is superb." R.L Curtis R.A.S. Kennel Control Journal
