I reserached a while into various bokos on dog nurtriotn and health. the options I found were limitintg: one can purchase books for alrge sums on money giving me all kinds on information about rare diseases and symptoms or the opposite, very light and uncritical. this book is in the middle. It highlights the most important facts for both nutrition and health and whilst it does not go into too much detail, I feel that I would not be able to cope with that anyway and would need to refer to a veterinarian anyway. And this is from a “human” doctor, turned dog owner, where I would feel the same about a book on human health, too many details are too confusing and worrying for the reader.

I’m still reading this book but I have learned a wealth of knowledge already. I am far from a new dog owner at one time in my life in one way or another my family had eight (yes
dogs! I love scouring the internet, magazines, and books for ways to be a better dog owner and now I have a manual right her at my fingertips! Within the first 30 min of reading I was able to find a helpful trick for my Shih Tzu Wally’s ear problems, just a bit of athlete’s foot powder sprinkled in there! And I was also able to find out the estimated caloric need of my little guy. I googled away and never found caloric requirements! I recommend this book to anyone who is thinking about getting a dog, owns a dog, or has love (and/or contact) with a canine friend!

Overall a good book, although sometimes it is overly basic and at others lacks detail it does have a particularly good first aid section. It is well laid out, clear, and easy to read. Well worth the investment to have on hand as a reference. Definitely a good buy for the first time dog owner!
