A comprehensive guide to the Greater Swiss Mountain Dog. It presents an introduction to this breed, including a look at the breed's long and romantic history and its status, its characteristics and owner requirements and the breed standards. It also provides advice on feeding, grooming, house-training, obedience, showing and more.
This full-color owner's guide to the Greater Swiss Mountain Dog is the most comprehensive introduction available about this versatile working dog. Although not as popular as his Swiss cousin, the Bernese Mountain Dog, the Greater Swiss Mountain Dog (or Swissy) shares the family tricolor hallmark--the black, tan, and white coat, good looks, and friendly temperament. New owners and those interested in exploring the Swissy will welcome the information provided on selection of a puppy, training, feeding, and general maintenance. The chapters on history, characteristics, and exhibitions demonstrate how intelligent and adaptable this "all-arounder" truly is, having been employed as a cart puller, herding dog, guard dog, competition dog, and family companion. The extensive chapter on healthcare by Dr. Lowell Ackerman provides everything a new owner needs to know about selecting a qualified veterinarian, vaccinations, parasites, infectious diseases, and more. Sidebars throughout the text offer helpful hints for all owners of this active and handsome purebred dog.
