SOS DOG - THE PUREBRED DOG HOBBY RE-EXAMINED
by Johan and Edith Gallant
Item: DG224
The domestic dog has presumably been associated with humankind for the past 13,000 years, but the majority of breeds are no older than 130 years. In that short time period, there has been much change and development, mainly with the human's taste and interests taking precedence over the dog.
This book questions if such a general approach is appropriate and if the purebred dog initiative since its inception has indeed improved the breeds under manipulation.
