About this title

Synopsis

Explains the meanings of the words and phrases related to the standards used in dog shows for judging the appearance of dogs

From the Inside Flap

"Harry Spira’s CANINE TERMINOLOGY, is in my opinion destined to become the definitive work in its field. Dr. Spira’s writing is clear, concise and easy to understand...his explanations are helped immeasurably by the artists’ total brilliance...The quality of Margaret and Marian Davidson’s drawing is superb." R.L Curtis R.A.S. Kennel Control Journal

Store Description

I opened my first bookstore in Davis CA in 1985, and started selling online in 1998. I've sold about 50,000 books online, with fewer than 100 returns. I take book descriptions seriously--it's an art--and photos, if not initially available, need only to be requested. I've been away from abebooks a few years, but now am back, with vastly increased shelf space, and plan to double the inventory (while maintaining the erstwhile quality). Non-fiction is my bailiwick, the more specialized and obscure the better. So, we share an interest in specific knowledge, and I will cater to your sphere of knowing as only a 40-year book nerd can.
