Features: In recent years, the popularity of dog breeding has rapidly developed. New breeds of dogs, training methods, and new technologies, medications, and knowledge in dog disease prevention and treatment have continuously emerged. The existing books on dog breeding, training, and disease prevention and treatment have no longer met everyone's needs. In light of this, our publishing house has invited Wang Xiangsheng, an expert in dog breeding and disease prevention and treatment from the Military Veterinary Research Institute of the People's Liberation Army Academy of Military Sciences, along with experts and professors from the academy who have long been engaged in research on canine physiology, biochemistry, feeding, reproduction, internal medicine, surgery, and infectious diseases, to compile this comprehensive guide on dog breeding and disease prevention and treatment. The book covers topics such as the physiological habits and characteristics of dogs, dog hygiene and grooming, scoring methods for competitive dogs, diagnostic techniques for dog diseases, prevention and treatment of canine internal medicine, surgery, infectious diseases, parasites, and skin diseases, as well as common drug dosages and usage methods. This book combines the long-term experience of canine disease experts from around the world with the clinical practices and insights of the authors. It is extensive in scope, innovative in content, richly illustrated, concise, easy to understand, highly practical, and especially suitable for pet enthusiasts, veterinary clinic staff, dog groomers, and military (police) dog trainers for reading and self-study. It is also an excellent reference textbook for faculty and students of higher agricultural institutions, as well as researchers in veterinary science and animal husbandry.
