WINNER, 2006 Winner of the Ben Franklin Award for the Best Health Book of any kind (the first animal care book to ever win this award) WINNER, 2006 USABookNews Award for the Best Animal/Pet Health Book
The title alone should tell you this is not your average dog book! Narrated by an opinionated four-pound dog named Chiclet, and spiced with heartwarming anecdotes, fascinating trivia and 89 enchanting full color photos, Scared Poopless is serious dog care with a sense of humor. You'll have fun while benefiting from the author's two years of research and interviews on countless topics ranging from Anesthesia to Vaccination, from Finding a New Dog to Finding a Lost Dog, and from Selecting a New Puppy to Placing a Dog You Can No Longer Keep.
Each chapter of Scared Poopless is a standalone mini-book. Devour it in one sitting, read a chapter every night or use it as a reference guide for when specific problems pop up. You'll pull it down again and again when you need to know something important like:
How often should I vaccinate my dog and what vaccines are important?
What's the best food for my dog?
Does your dog really need a blood test before heartworm medication or anesthesia?
Is anesthesia-free dental care really safer than cleanings by your vet?
What are the best ways to ensure your dog's safety in the car or on a plane?
How do I get my dog safely through surgery?
Hal Abrams, host of Animal Radio Network says, "This is a great book! There are a million books out there on how to take care of your dog, but there is only one Scared Poopless! It's so fun, with beautiful color pictures. Very easy to read. A terrific book!"
The review in the Journal of the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association called the book "wonderful, and said, "The 90 incredible photos alone are worth the price of admission, but this is much, much more than a cute picture book." And even the movie star dog Benji, in her first book endorsement ever, said, "At last, a dog reveals the shocking truth about dog care! Applause for Chiclet, and two big paws up for her book!"
Most dog care is a dangerous mixture of myths, misinformation and commercial propaganda. Help your dog live a long, healthy life and have fun in the process with Scared Poopless!
