Now in its third edition, The Dog: Its Behavior, Nutrition, and Health, remains a definitive textbook regarding dogs and their care. Written in clear, accessible language, the text provides updated and expanded coverage of selective breeding, training principles, solutions to common behavior problems, diet and nutrition, and preventive health care. New sections in this edition include information about the canine genome and genetic testing programs, canine social cognition and communication, manners-related training and common behavior problems, popular dog sports, and several new medical problems, including neoplastic diseases (cancer) and atopic disease (allergies). Enhanced with many distinctive figures and tables, the text also provides current references, suggested readings, and a thorough glossary to aid in comprehension.More in-depth that most dog books, The Dog is an indispensable tool for veterinarians, veterinary technicians, trainers, behaviorists, breeders, animal shelter and rescue group staff, and dog owners.The Dog: Its Behavior, Nutrition, and Health was completed by the author in 1998 and was first published by Iowa State University Press in 1999. The second edition was written and released in 2005 and was published by Blackwell Publishing. Today, "The Dog" continues to be used in a variety of companion animal science college courses as a required or recommended textbook. Additionally, the book is a popular resource for dog trainers, shelter staff, veterinary professionals, and dog enthusiasts.
