Your Sick Dog: a Dog Owner's Guide to Understanding and Managing Breeding, Illness and Injury

What's wrong with my dog? The question every dog owner has to answer. Here is the book to help them to understand every aspect of the veterinary care of their pet dog and to demystify the visit to the vet. Each chapter of this book is written as if it was a consultation with your vet and enables even the vaguest symptom to be diagnosed with a specific treatment. This book does not try to replace the vet or prescribe how individual medical conditions should be treated but empowers the owner to meet the vet on more equal terms and to be able to discuss the care of the dog more fully. An invaluable and informative manual for every dog owner. AUTHOR: Nico Maritz is a practising veterinary surgeon with extensive international experience of treating domestic pets. Knowledge, compassion and communication are the cornerstones of his animal care philosophy. The author lives in Lingfield, Surrey. 50 two-colour line drawings
