From the essential to the amusing, you'll learn: Signs of dehydration 10 ways to keep your dog slim How to give artificial respiration to your dog, what percentage of owners sign their pets' names on greeting cards, stories of canine heroics, a profile of presidential pooches, the difference between dogs and cats: "When you come home from work, the dog is pleased to see you. The cat is still cross with you for leaving in the first place."

Karen Bush grew up with a family dog, several birds and a couple of borrowed ponies. Later on, other dogs arrived, including a Springer Spaniel, a Manchester Terrier-cross, a whippet named Fern and a Bouvier-cross named Boris. In the U.K., Karen and her dogs have starred in a series on canine agility in Your Dog magazine, to which she has been a regular contributor since 1995, writing on a variety of canine subjects. She is also the author of 15 equestrian books.
