Gundog Health and Welfare aims to provide concise guidance for those who aspire to acquire a healthy puppy as well as existing owners of gundogs so they might be reasonably informed on how best to ensure their dogs live healthy, happy, active lives and are able to assure their immediate care should they become ill or injured. The book covers: keeping your puppy healthy and introducing him to the outside world; reducing the risks of injury and disease; first aid in the field; recognising and dealing with illnesses and caring for the older dog

Breeding From Your Bitch covers every aspect of breeding for anyone who might be considering mating their bitch. Written by a vet, this accessible and invaluable book dispels common misconceptions and addresses frankly the issues involved, ranging from the cost, time, and effort concerned, through the mating process itself, to ensuring the health and welfare of both mother and puppies. The book covers factors to consider in choosing a breed; choosing a stud dog and the mating process; care of the bitch during pregnancy; whelping and caring for neo-natal puppies; post-pregnancy care and, finally, rearing a healthy litter.
