Dogs have become part of the family in more than 35 million North American households. Unfortunately, not all owners have the up-to-date information they need to build a rewarding, lifelong relationship with the dog they love. In Prima's "Your Pet's Life" series, pet-care experts give new -- and veteran -- dog owners everything they need to know to raise a healthy, happy dog from puppy to indispensable companion. In contrast to most breed-specific books, which use generic training sections, every book in the series contains a training section specifically geared to the needs and special requirements of each individual breed.
