About this Book

As a practising vet, Charles Bell has had the opportunity to meet many distressed pet owners who would love to know what they can do to help when their pet meets with an accident. In response to this demand, he has written this comprehensive manual for dog owners, covering not just basic first aid in a variety of emergency situations, but also giving sound practical advice on general welfare and health care. He includes tips on travelling with dogs, dental care, dieting and exercise, as well as a guide to rehabilitation after an operation or accident.

This book is in no way intended to replace the vital function of the veterinary surgeon, but provided a bridge between the dog owner and the vet, enabling the owner to cope with any eventuality until contact with the vet is made.
