“Show Pekingese” is a classic guide to owning and breeding Pekingese dogs for the purpose of competing and exhibiting. It explores every aspect of the subject from history to selection, rearing, and winning. This comprehensive volume will be of considerable utility to owners and breeders alike, and it would make for a great addition to collections of related literature. Contents include: “Origin and History”, “Pekingese Genealogy”, “Clubs and Their Foundations and Standard of Points”, “The Brood Bitch and Stud Dog”, “The Rearing and Feeding of Puppies, and Short Notes on Kennelling”, “Some Common Ailments”, and “Preparation for Exhibition”. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on dog breeding.
