Abstract
DOG books are usually addressed to professional and amateur dog-breeders and exhibitors, and the owners of ordinary house-dogs are often left to grapple with academic works or pick up their information by hearsay. Mr. C. L. B. Hubbard has tried to help those who wish to make a success of their dog-keeping, and in this little book has condensed much useful information on house-dog management into small compass and plain words. Advice is given on the physical characteristics of dogs, the various breeds, their peculiar behaviour characteristics, their training and grooming, and the way in which they should be fed both in times of plenty and at present.
