Publisher's Notes
Here's a dog book that stands out from the pack! Unlike other training manuals, which discuss only the first two years of a dog's life, this unique resource by the award-winning author of "The Great New York Dog Book" covers the entire life cycle of our faithful canine companions. From the smiles and trials of puppyhood to the special pleasures and concerns of having an older dog, every stage of a dogs life is covered in the age-specific chapters of this helpful guide. Featuring interviews with professionals, the chapters walk readers through the joys and difficulties associated with each stage, from the puppy's introduction to its new home to surviving the whelp's adolescence, from keeping the adult dogs play interesting to getting the most out of its final years to coping with the loss of a beloved companion.

Dog's Best Friend
by Ursula Birr
In exploring the origins of this oldest human-animal relationship the authors traveled to Borneo, Patagonia, Greenland, Namibia, and Nepal, where they found races of dogs that are largely unknown, dogs of pure beauty and unique character such as the azawakhs, basenjis, kelpies, and sloughis, dogs that even today are an essential part of their human community. Dog's Best Friend follows the close partnership between man and dog in indigenous cultures and reveals how without our canine friends the cultural history of humankind would be vastly different. Whether as sled, shepherd, or hunting dogs, whether in the desert, jungle, or eternal ice, dogs have been the faithful companions of humans for thousands of years, and this union has proved one of the most enduring and fruitful in history.
