It's well known that each canine breed has its own traits, but when acquiring a new pet dog, many inexperienced owners mistakenly assume that the "one-size-fits-all" approach is adequate for purposes of dog training. This new title in Barron's Training Your Dog pet care series focuses on the distinctive traits of the Dachshund. Dog owners learn humane but effective methods of housebreaking and paper training, obedience training, teaching the dog to respond to verbal commands, walk on a leash, and more. All books in the Training Your Dog series are filled with instructive, step-by-step color photos that demonstrate training methods.

Hairless Dogs

Hairless Dogs - The Naked Truth [The Chinese Crested, Xoloitzcuintli &amp; Peruvian Inca Orchid] is the first-ever breed book of its kind that provides information about all modern day hairless dogs (including the American Hairless Terrier).

The Naked Truth is the definitive guide to the care, breeding, and history of hairless dogs.

Archaeological evidence is presented tracing the history of hairless dogs from their ancient origins to their present day incarnations. 
Full of fascinating details, this unique book provides an in depth look at the genetics of hairlessness (dominant &amp; recessive), its perpetuation through selective breeding, and the development of the four officially recognized hairless breeds of today. Discussion of foundation kennels, pedigrees, breed standards and numerous rare, historical photographs make this book an indispensable reference for anyone with an interest in hairless dogs.
