Product Description:
First published in 1997, Book of the Bitch is now available in a new edition, providing thorough, in-depth coverage of every aspect of caring for and understanding the canine female. For those interested in breeding a litter, the procedure for whelping and puppy rearing is carefully explained, while detailed advice is given on how to recognise signs of sickness, and, in particular, those diseases to which bitches are prone. Backed up with many clear illustations and tables, Book of the Bitch is essential reading for anyone considering owning a female dog. This book was published in the UK, and is distributed in North America by Willow Creek Press.

Detailed and specific information in relation to the female dog; very helpful to understanding the psychology, cycles and makeup of the bitch and what effects these have upon her. Also some very useful information on puppy rearing.

This book came in very handy. Was easy to read and understand. I have just had my very first litter of pups and your book was spot on out of all the other books I have purchased.

I have just started raising my English Mastiffs and Bullmastiffs and was worried this book would lean more towards the little dogs like most books. It was great! I had it right subsequent to me when the time came for the puppies to come!

This book is a bible for many serious dog breeders out there. When someone recently asked a group of people at a national dog show for recommendations on whelping books - we ALL had and suggested this one. With that being said, this is NOT a book about pregnancy and whelping ( although that is covered of course). This book is about the owning a bitch and all the things that go with it from purchasing the dog to medical problems to placing puppies. It is complete and detailed. I pull it off my shelf for any bitch concern for reference and it (and the kit that they suggest) has sat beside me with every litter I have ever whelped.
