Product Description
Book Description
The German Shepherd Dog stands supreme as the most popular breed worldwide, valued for its intelligence, its distinguished good looks, and its loyal temperament. Originally bred as a versatile working dog, herding and guarding the flock, it is now the service dog par excellence, used by military and police forces all over the globe. The German Shepherd's tremendous versatility translates to other roles, and the breed is widely used as a guide dog for the blind and an assistance dog, as well as excelling in the world of Working Trials, Competitive Obedience and Agility. This noble-looking dog always makes it mark in the show ring, and, perhaps most importantly, the German Shepherd ranks as a most devoted family companion.
From the Inside Flap
In The Ultimate German Shepherd Dog, Editor Sheila Rankin has recruited a star-studded cast of specialists to write the definitive book on the breed. Experts from all over the world have pooled resources to give the most comprehensive coverage of the German Shepherd Dog today. Starting with in-depth research into the origins and development of the breed, the experts go on to analyse the Breed Standard in detail, and there is a special feature - The Judge's View - in which three judges make a pictorial critique of six different German Shepherd Dogs. The importance of training and socialisation is emphasised throughout the book, with contributions from top trainers and handlers in all the German Shepherd's different spheres of activity. There is a section devoted to the German Shepherd at work, with contributions from a guide dog owner, a police dog handler, and an army office who specialises in training German Shepherds for the military. Leading experts give detailed information on feeding, grooming, exercise, health care and inherited conditions, and there is a special feature on breeding and rearing German Shepherds. The Ultimate German Shepherd Dog, a book for the true Shepherd enthusiast, is lavishly illustrated with more than 200 colour photographs.
