The idea that dogs can't have a great life in the city, that it's cruel for an apartment dweller to own a dog, is simply untrue. Happy, well-behaved dogs are a fact of city life. They ride in elevators, promenade on city sidewalks, exercise in parks, even travel in cabs. But bringing up a dog in the city is no walk in the park.
Now Brian Kilcommons and Sarah Wilson, two of America's most trusted names in canine-human relations, give you all the special advice you need. You'll learn how to rear a city dog step by step, from which breeds do best in an urban setting (and which to avoid) to paper training and picking the perfect dog walker. Whether you already have a dog or are thinking of adopting one soon, this book's smart urban strategies and helpful insights for all dog owners will ensure that your cosmopolitan canine has a great life - and is a healthy and city-savvy . . . MetroDog.
