WHAT DOG?
A GUIDE TO HELP NEW OWNERS SELECT THE RIGHT BREED FOR THEIR LIFESTYLE

Dogs have a direct line to the hearts of most animal lovers, but it s all too easy to fall under the spell of a canine charmer and let cool reason fly out the window when acquiring your pet.

What prospective owners of a dog really need is an honest portrait of the breed they are thinking about taking into their home. Such a portrait should highlight the breed s positive characteristics and point out potential shortcomings that might conflict with the owner s lifestyle. What Dog? is the book that provides that information. It s a guide to the hundred most popular dog breeds, with highlights on each breed s personality and welcome advice on how well a dog of a specific breed will fit into your home. Information and advice comes with beautiful illustrations and a color graphic bar chart that provides at-a-glance data on the seven most important canine character traits.

Features more than 400 superb color photographs of adult dogs
