(back cover) How to Choose the Right Dog for You With so many dog breeds available, it can be difficult to know which one to choose.

Over 200 stunning photographs accompanied by informative captions help you to identify the key characteristics of each breed (front flap) THE DOG SELECTOR How to Choose the Right Dog for You Choosing a dog is like choosing a partner--you need to be sure you can get along, have similar interests, and are both willing to make compromises. If you're more of a sofa surfer than an exercise junky, you should steer clear of the Irish Setter and the Belgian Sheepdog because these dogs love to run. And, if your home isn't spacious, you might not have the room for a Saint Bernard or a Great Dane. So how do you choose your canine friend for life? The Dog Selector makes it easy. Expertly written text supplemented with helpful sidebar features, engaging photography, and intriguing facts on 130 of the most common breeds ensures that you'll find your perfect canine companion. A carefully planned questionnaire at the beginning of the book directs you to detailed profiles of your top ten breeds, matching your personality and lifestyle to a suitable dog. Whether you need a low-maintenance Labradoodle or a super-smart German Shepherd Dog, you'll find the right dog in this book.
