Following his earlier work, "Fertility and Obstetrics in the Horse", W.E.Allen has written this practical volume on the reproductive problems of the dog. It describes the various conditions which affect the breeding life of dogs - a subject that has often suffered from speculation based on findings in other species. The author aims to correct many misconceptions arising from ignorance and misinformation. The book should be useful to veterinary practitioners and to those involved in the breeding of dogs.
