Living With Dogs: A commonsense guide

Description

For almost thirty years Dr Hugh Wirth has been an ABC Local Radio pet expert, answering listeners' questions on everything from how to deal with a dog's bad breath to the best way to house train them. Whenever Dr Hugh is on the air, the switchboard becomes jammed with callers wanting his advice on their particular pet dilemma. In this practical, commonsense book on living with and caring for dogs, Hugh covers all the topics that dog owners need to know, from choosing a breed to behaviour and health. The book also includes an extensive Q&A section, based on ABC Local Radio listener questions.
