Aprašymas

Akitas require mental exercise every day. Airedale Terriers must hunt, no matter what, Havanese must live indoors despite a thick fur coat, and Tibetan Terriers are really family dogs, although they have been known to slip out and herd a yak or two. Coile provides descriptions of provenance, temperament, upkeep, health, and form and function, along with color photographs and quick-comparison charts for over 150 breeds, including those in the sporting, non-sporting, hound, working, terrier, toy, and herding groups. She also gives advice on choosing a dog for your family, and information about medical conditions, anatomy and breeding. We want them all, including the Neapolitan Mastiff who strongly resembles a casserole left out in the rain, and the Miniature Pinscher, who looks like he could bring down a freight train but is only about 11 inches tall.
