KENNEL CLUB'S ILLUSTRATED BREED STANDARDS

click here to buy online


The Kennel Club's Breed Standards form the basis for judging dogs at all licensed breed shows. This single-volume, authoritative guide is essential reading for anyone who owns, or hopes to own, a pure-bred dog.

Containing full descriptive 'standards' for all pure breeds of dog recognised by The Kennel Club, The Illustrated Breed Standards is indispensable for breeders, judges, vets and anyone professionally involved with dogs.

This book has been completely revised by a panel of experts to incorporate the latest standards for all the breeds in each of the principle categories - Hound, Gundog, Terrier, Utility, Working, Toy and Pastoral. A history of each breed is given, describing its origin and purpose, together with a description detailing its essential features. There is also useful advice on the nature and suitability of a dog, for example as an ideal family companion or an excellent guard dog. In addition, there are reminders about which breeds require lots of daily exercise, and which need hours of regular grooming. There is also a comprehensive glossary of canine terms.

WHELPING VIDEO by GDBA
WHELPING VIDEO by Guide Dogs for the Blind Association

Arguably the most daunting and anxious period faced by novice breeders is when the bitch whelps. What do you do? When do you call the Vet? What if it's a breech birth? This video addresses all these questions and is designed to cover all aspects of whelping and offer advice and support. There are also tips for the experienced breeder.

The video shows the design and preparation of a whelping bed and where to site it. There is a detailed checklist for everything that is needed for the big day along with a stage-by-stage approach that shows how to recognise the signs including that all important "drop" in temperature.

The programme demonstrated how to control the whelp, supervise the birth, check respiration and puppy airways, handle a maiden bitch and techniques for reviving puppies.

Essential viewing for all dog breeders.
