Intro: Canine Reproduction

For a number of reasons, chief among them pet overpopulation, the breeding of dogs is not recommended by most veterinarians and trainers. However, if you own a purebred (some of whom are sold on condition that they be bred at least once), this section contains a brief overview of what to expect during the mating and reproduction process.

Most are not qualified to breed and with all the unwanted dogs killed in the thousands and sheltered daily I can't imagine breeding on purpose. I bet you knew that was coming from me.

Quirk BooksThe Dog Owner's Manual is a basic guide to dog care.
The book was written by a celebrated veterinarian and an acclaimed author. It provides dog owners with well-researched and helpful information presented in a lighthearted manner. The creators chose to write the book in a style similar to what you'd find in "operating instructions" for a car or computer. Of course they--and we--respect the fact that our beloved pets are not products or machines!
