<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>It's a doggy-dog world, and this easy-to-use guide will help you navigate it.</b><br /><br />These days, people's dogs have become bona fide members of the family. Moving from the kennel to the couch, they share our beds, family rooms, and holidays; and they are recipients of our kindest and utmost concern. A pet partnership is a lifetime commitment. Do it right, and your dog will become an important and valuable part of the family for many years. Do it wrong, and you've broken a sacred covenant between humankind and another living being.</p> <p><i>Dogs For Dummies, 2nd Edition, </i> is for you if you are looking to adopt a dog, trying to improve the relationship with the one you have, or attempting to come up with fun things to do with your canine companion.
