Synopsis

Doggy problems quickly turn into people problems unless dog owners come up with good solutions. Author Amanda O'Neill has those solutions, which she shares with readers and divides into several general categories for easy reference. The categories include Antisocial Behavior, Sex Problems, Smelly Problems, Barking Problems, and others. For example, among the problems discussed under Antisocial Behavior is "My Dog Wrecks My Neighbor's Garden." The problem and its solution are broken down according to possible causes, breed notes (some breeds are especially prone to digging), recommended action owners can take, and prevention. Some doggy problems are best solved by training, others by deterrent methods, and still others--like many "smelly dog" problems--by consultation with a veterinarian. Amanda O'Neill offers her advice in a friendly, highly informal style, and every page of her book is enhanced with color photos and cartoon-style illustrations.

About this title

From the Inside Flap

(back cover)
This book is divided into eight separate sections: Food Foul-Ups, Stinky Situations, Messy Matters, Sexual Stirrings, Problems With People, Willful On Walks, Horrible At Home, and Doggy Damage. Each featured problem is lucidly explained and its causes analyzed, with clear guidance on how to prevent it, or get rid of it entirely. The illustrations include many humorous cartoons that beautifully illustrate the lighter side of human-canine relationships.
