Category : Pets
Languages : en
Pages : 149
Book Description
The world’s most beloved hairless dog, the Chinese Crested is distinctive for his near-nakedness, his (sometimes) lavender skin coloration, and his graceful miniature pony outline. Whether hairless with tufts of flowing hair on his feet, head, and tail or coated (referred to as Powderpuff), the Chinese Crested makes a loyal, enthusiastic companion for anyone clever enough to fall under the spell of this elegant toy breed. Author Juliette Cunliffe provides insightful chapters on the breed’s history, the evolution of hairless dogs, and the characteristics that make the Chinese Crested such a unique dog among dogs. New owners will welcome the well-prepared chapter on finding a reputable breeder and selecting a healthy, sound puppy. Chapters on puppy-proofing the home and yard, purchasing the right supplies for the puppy as well as house-training, feeding, and grooming (of skin and coat) and tooth care are illustrated with photographs of handsome adults and puppies. In all, there are over 135 full-color photographs in this useful and reliable volume. The author’s advice on obedience training will help the reader better mold and train into the most well-mannered dog in the neighborhood. The extensive and lavishly illustrated chapter on healthcare provides up-to-date detailed information on selecting a qualified veterinarian, vaccinations, preventing and dealing with parasites, infectious diseases, and more. Sidebars throughout the text offer helpful hints, covering topics as diverse as historical dogs, breeders, or kennels, toxic plants, first aid, crate training, carsickness, fussy eaters, and parasite control. Fully indexed.

Rescue Me
Author: Melissa Wareham
Publisher: Random House
ISBN: 140702857X
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 330
Book Description
Melissa Wareham always wanted to work with dogs. After failing her biology O-level she realised she'd have to start at the bottom, cleaning out kennels at Battersea Dogs Home. From frail old men looking for a four-legged companion to famous folk who've lost their favourite hound, it seemed that at some point everyone passes through Battersea's doors. Amongst the clamour of thousands of lost pets crying 'Rescue Me!' and the noise of the railway lines above, Melissa found she had come home. The first dog Melissa fell for was Tulip, a sweet, elderly and somewhat dotty mongrel who decided a solo bus ride into the West End might be fun. Next up was Roscoe: found by the ambulance team with his dead owner, he is rehabilitated with a little help from his master's hat. And then - many, many dogs later - there is Gus. With his owner in jail, Melissa finally finds the dog she is to take home as her own. Heart-warming and compulsively readable, Rescue Me is Melissa's memoir of her fifteen years at Britain's most-loved dogs' home.
