How to Choose a Dog, and How to Select a Puppy. With Notes on the
Peculiarities and Characteristics of each Breed. By VERO SHAW, Author of
"The Illustrated Book of the Dog," late Kennel Editor of the "Field."
Crown 8vo., sewed, 1_s._ 6_d._
_The Stock Keeper._--"The price is within everybody's means, and needless
to say the work is not of a pretentious nature. On the other hand, the
text keeps the promise of the title, and the advice that is given is good.
Each breed of dog has a chapter to itself, which opens with a few
introductory remarks of a general nature: then follow the points briefly
and plainly; next come average of the pup from six weeks old until he
attains maturity. A couple of pages at the end of the work are devoted to
the relation, and a few useful hints on buying, feeding, and breeding.
Needless to add that like all Mr. Vero Shaw's writings on canine subjects
the information is founded on practical experience and imparted in easy
excellent English."
