Choosing a dog is less about picking a favourite breed than about matching temperament, size and exercise needs to the household it will join. Amanda O'Neill's What Dog? is built around exactly that matching problem.
Breed profiles make up the bulk of the book, each covering character, grooming demands, activity levels and how a breed tends to get on with children or with first-time owners. Illustrations sit alongside the text, and the arrangement makes it straightforward to compare candidates side by side.
What buyers should know:
• Profiles spanning working breeds through to small companion dogs
• Notes on grooming, exercise and temperament for each entry
• Guidance on suitability for flats, houses and family homes
• An illustrated reference format built for quick comparison
Prospective owners, families weighing a first pet and experienced dog lovers will find this Interpet Books guide practical, and it is available at Boipoka.
