This is our seventh set of Happy, Healthy Pet titles. These latest additions will bring our series up to fifty-five titles, and like the others, they are books pet owners can turn to for the essential information they need to raise a healthy pet.
All books contain information on:
feeding
housing
grooming
health care
what to expect from the pet
basic training
As our series expands and focuses on different kinds of pets, the emphasis remains on making the pet a companion. In addition, owners of more unusual pets will particularly appreciate the expert advice in these books because professional care for their animals may be difficult to come by. As always, the instruction is from expert—people who know their pet intimately, but also remember what it was like to have one for the first time.
Happy, Healthy Pet guides are rich with professional quality color photos and are designed to be enjoyable and easy to learn from.
If you have any thoughts about getting an ACD then for Heaven's sake, get this book first. Everything that John and Mary Holmes have written is good, sound advice. This probably one of the most sensible "dog" books I have ever seen
I have had lots of dogs over the years, all working dogs either Gun dogs or Herding dogs
The ACD is streets ahead of any that I have had and seems to have a reasoning ability that I have only had with one Collie.
Our puppy is very young and already is wary of strangers. He shows an eagerness to learn and needs to be occupied for every waking minute
You will need to have a firm hand if you have any ideas of having an ACD and this book tells you the way forward better than anything else that I have read.
