Complete Book of Dog Breeding
Very informative and well written account of dog breeding, right from before conception to weaning puppies. It covers all sections in great detail with excellent illustrations. Even though it is written by a vet it is a very sympathic help guide to breeding. Would recommend anyone interested in breeding dogs to buy and read.

A must have for all potential dog breeders
I bought this book as I wanted to breed my 2 Labradors. I refered to the book time and time again for the many stages of the breeding process, from mating to pregnancy to delivery to weaning. My Labrador gave birth to 5 healthy puppies 8 weeks ago. The only criticism I have of the book was that it said that instinct would take over during delivery. Unfortunately, this did not happen so I was glad that I knew what to do with the puppies as soon as they were born (which was all due to this book). I would thoroughly recommend this book to anyone who was thinking about breeding any kind of dog - it's thorough and informative - just what you and your dog needs!

Full of Interest
This book is easy to read and extremely informative. I have lent it to friends of mine who are dog breeders and they say it is the best book on the subject that they have read.
In fact, I wonder if I'll ever get it back!
