Présentation de l'éditeur

The gentle giant of Germany known as the Leonberger is revered for his tawny, golden coat, his impressive size and his leonine appearance. With interest in this rare breed growing around the world, the Leonberger roars with confidence and courage, proud to be an irresistible "lion of a dog". His roar is considerably bigger than his bite, as this canine king of the jungle is mild-mannered, biddable and affectionate with his people. For the right owner and family, the Leonberger proves to be a first-class addition, beauty, brains and loyalty enrobed in a king-sized package. As a much needed resource for Leonberger owners and potential newcomers, this Special Rare-Breed Edition offers an authoritative text written by well-respected breeder and Leonberger authority Madeline Lusby. The book provides a concise, accurate history of the breed, a discussion of the breed standard as well as personal insight into the Leo's unique character, told through the author's delightful anecdotes. To assist owners to better understand this unique canine, this volume offers expert advice on puppy selection, obedience training, raising and safeguarding the Leonberger. Chapters devoted to everyday care for the Leo, including feeding, grooming, exercise, housebreaking and more. Additionally, a lavishly illustrated chapter on canine health, written by well-known veterinarian and author Dr Lowell Ackerman, addresses topics vital to every Leonberger owner, including selecting a veterinarian, vaccinations, parasite control and more.
