FOREWORD 
An ailing dog is very like an ailing man. He tends to 
be fussy,whiney, snappy, lazy and indifferent. 
A healthy dog, on the other hand, is usually a happy 
dog and a cheerful, lovable companion by the fireside, on 
the road or in the field. 
If your dog is ailing, restore his health and you will also 
restore his joyous, carefree disposition and willingness to do 
anything possible for man, woman or child. 
If he is healthy, keep him so with intelligent care, and 
you will be many times repaid for your trouble. 
Prevention— that’s the idea —one of the biggest ideas 
of modern times—prevention for the dog as well as for the 
man. 
While this book is written as a complete description of 
every known dog disease and includes definite, scientific 
methods of treatment for each, you will find that it also contains 
paragraph after paragraph of suggestions on prevention includ¬ 
ing expert advice on feeding the dog from its earliest infancy. 
Proper diet is really so important that we have devoted the 
opening chapter to it. Refer to this book continually. Carry 
out its instructions to the letter, and your dog will be infinitely 
the better for it.
