So what's the perfect dog for you?
It depends on your lifestyle. Are you a single white female or an all-around family guy? A couch potato or an athlete? A city slicker or a suburbanite? Do you have allergies? Are you paranoid about security? Are you willing to spend lots of money on expensive obedience-training classes?
With 'The Good, The Bad, And The Furry', author Sam Stall has consulted with dozens of breed rescue groups to learn the best - and worst - traits of more than 100 different dogs. With a series of frank, illustrated profiles, he offers the inside scoop on the world's most popular dog breeds - and describes which ones are right for you. For instance, contrary to what you see on Frasier, Jack Russell Terriers make terrible apartment dogs. They have tremendous energy and need plenty of open space to burn it off. A much better choice for apartment dwellers is (surprisingly) the Greyhound. Sure, they can out run virtually anything on four legs - but they're also content to spend the afternoon lounging on the couch.
That's just a small sampling of the fresh, funny information in this book. Complete with whimsical 2-colour duotone illustrations of more than 100 different breeds, 'The Good, The Bad, And The Furry' offers everything you
need to find the dog that's right for you.
