Dog is the book for every day of your dog's life - and every day of your life with your dog. This is the enduring story of man and dog. At its heart is an emotionally intelligent analysis of the lifelong partnership between the two species, with such wit and wisdom that will shape your attitude, influence your actions, and provoke the happiest and healthiest lives for you and your dog. But it's in the detail of this book that you'll find magic: in the miracle of birth, the too-short puppyhood, the exasperating adolescence and calmer adulthood. In Dog, Dr. Bruce Fogle explains the familiar and mysterious relationship between man and dog. Throughout this evocative and detailed study he reveals - by exploring behaviour, anthropology and genetics - the essential bonds of trust, loyalty and service that mark humankind's most valuable and long-lived of animal friendships. You'll turn to this book every time your dog surprises you, worries you, needs you, misses you, and plays, exercises, runs or swims. This is the book to take from the shelf when you plan to choose a new puppy or must face the autumn years of a much-loved old friend, for training, and for the very best veterinary advice in emergencies.

This manual is an essential item for any pug aspiring to be a sophisticated, civilized citizen. Pugs play by their own set of rules. When you want them to sit, they stand; when you want them to stay, they go; and when you want them to stop eating that unidentified item on the floor, well... Traditional schools of canine thought put this behavior down to a stubborn refusal to be trained that's inherent in the bred. Not so. This behaviour is, in fact, down to an ancient set of rules, passed down from pug generation to pug generation. A Pug's Guide to Etiquette attempts to explain these rules, thereby advancing pug-human relations to hitherto unprecedented heights.
