Skin & Coat Care For Your Dog Compiled by Lowell Ackerman, DVM.

As every dog owner knows, skin and coat problems are the number-one reason to take a dog to the veterinarian. The dog’s skin and coat, fairly complicated as a bodily system, frustrate owners and veterinarians alike - and the itching dog too.

Skin & Coat Care For Your Dog is an owner’s manual to every problem a dog can have related to dermatology. Fourteen of the world’s most respected professionals in their fields, specialists and Diplomates of the American College of veterinary Dermatology, join compiler and editor Dr. Lowell Ackerman in discussing everything from the basics of parasites, mange, and hair loss to general maintenance including nail care, medications, and much more.

While written in layman’s language, veterinarians, too, will find this volume an authoritative resource.

Illustrated with hundreds of colour photographs, Skin & Coat Care For Your Dog will help owners better understand the many conditions discussed and better communicate with their veterinarians.
