First published in 1997, Book of the Bitch is now available in a new edition, providing thorough, in-depth coverage of every aspect of caring for and understanding the canine female. But in Ailie's eyes, a bitch is someone who stands firm and speaks their mind in the face of sexist rhetoric. The procedures for whelping and puppy rearing is carefully explained and detailed advice is given on the diseases to which bitches are prone. So, when it comes to the hormonal stuff and how to cope with pregnancy and whelping (the birthing of the pups), this is *the* guide.

I've been a dog lover all my life and owned dogs all of my adult life, and they were all dogs up to seven years ago when I met my partner. Great book, especially if considering breeding - INVALUABLE advice on what to do before, during - especially in case of issues - and after. This book shows once and for all that every bitch is multifaceted, every bitch is human and every bitch deserves to be celebrated.As you would expect a lot of the content is based around the before and after of breeding but despite not being at that stage with our dog yet this book has more than earned it's keep already. I am certain this will continue to be a go to book for knowledge and refreshing for many years to come. For those interested in breeding a litter, the procedure for whelping and puppy rearing is carefully explained, while detailed advice is given on how to recognise signs of sickness, and, in particular, those diseases to which bitches are prone.
