Commonsense and Secrets of Dog- Feeding

Originally published in 1922, this is an excellent guide to feeding dogs, containing, "the commonsense of so feeding puppies and dogs as to ensure perfect development, health and show condition". The book has much practical advice and information to offer today's dog-owner and has many sensible suggestions about nutrition. A useful and informative read. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Hesperides Press are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
