Indian Notes About Dogs - Their Diseases and Treatment - Paperback

by Major C. Davenport (Author)

First published in 1893, "Indian Notes About Dogs" is a practical treatise on dogs with a particular focus on dogs adapted for life in India. It includes chapters on everything from selection and breeding to feeding, exercise, care, hygiene, and everything else a dog-keepers needs to know. Contents include: "Introductory Remarks", "Practical Rules for Administering Medicine, Bleeding, etc.", "Accidents and Injuries, and Their Treatment", "Broken Bones and Dislocations", "Special Treatment of Bitches and Pups", "Rules for Selecting Pups", "Rules for Feeding and Exercise", "Prescriptions, Alphabetically Arranged", "Descriptions of Various Kinds of Dogs", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on the history of dog breeding.
