ASPCA Complete Guide to Dogs -- The ultimate resource for dog lovers, the ASPCA Complete Guide to Dogs is the authoritative volume on selecting and caring for any kind of dog. In the ASPCA tradition, this book has a strong focus on mixed breeds—a major difference from most other dog books, which describe only purebreds. At over 500 pages with more than 650 illustrations and photos, this guide covers everything dog owners need to know to give their dog the best possible care at every stage of life, including advice on bathing and grooming, training and exercise, and the special needs of puppies and older dogs. For anyone thinking about getting a dog or seeking to understand the one they have, this lively book is the place to turn for trustworthy information on all canine matters.

Sheldon Gerstenfeld, VMD is director of the Chestnut Hill Veterinary Hospital and Bird Clinic in Philadelphia. Author of previous books on cat and dog care, he has served as a contributing editor to Parents magazine and hosted a radio program on pet care. He lives outside Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

This book will be the best book you've read about dogs. It doesn't just focus in on one type of breed. This is a book that has helped me by giving me pointers on training, eating habits, and also choosing the right dog. I am a owner of two dogs, a long haired chihuahua and a hound mix. This book has taught me the proper care needed to be a perfect owner. I recommend this book to anyone and everyone who is having dog troubles.
