My favorite 'go-to' guide

This is such a wonderful resourse! I have it on hand at all times for when 'something's just not quite right' with one of my doggies. As has been mentioned, it contains a chapter for every part of your pet. Excessive sratching?: Chapter six has almost 20 pages devoted to hair and skin disorders. Chapter nine lists over twenty pages concerning 'spine, limbs, and paws. And on and on...it literally covers every square inch of your pet. It also contains a handy "Symptoms Quickfinder" chart, and and a great "list of recommended dosages" chart, that gives you dosages for everything from aspirin to Zinc. I could go on and on, but I guarantee, you will never be disappointed you purchased this book!

Very useful

This book really helps to understand your dog symptons and it's very easy tu read because it doesn't have all that technical words that make hard to understand the book.

A "MUST" for every house with dogs. Beginners or experts, will take the most from this book and love it.

Very educational and easy reading for dog lovers!

Great book with lots of information concerning the symptoms and solutions for your dog. Well organized and easy to read. I found this book very helpful for my older dogs. I would recommend this book to all dog owners.

Very informative and easy to read

This is an excellent book. The first two chapters talk about emergency first aid and common behavior problems. The rest of the book is divided into different sections by body parts (head, eyes, skin, etc). Under each section, different topics are grouped by symptoms instead of disease names, therefore making it easier to to look for answers. It provides a very thorough discussion on symptoms, causes, treatment and prevention in a simple and easy-to-understand manner.The appendix about health check, over-the-counter medications, herbs and minerals also provides as a good reference.
