Whether you're the proud owner of a mischievous mutt or a pedigree show dog, learning to use the art of massage will make a world of difference to the health and well-being of your favourite four-legged pal. Dogs simply adore being patted and stroked, and will frequently nudge you as a reminder to caress and pet them. Now, with this enchanting little book, you'll be able to express your love with real knowledge at your fingertips. Massage is the perfect way of caring for your dog, and has so many positive benefits - it calms nerves, boosts confidence, improves behaviour, soothes aches and pains, stimulates muscle tone, promotes a gleaming, healthy coat, and creates an extra-special bond between you both. What's more, it's good for your health too - massaging your dog is a great way of getting relaxed, and can even lower your blood pressure. With detailed, practical know-how and techniques on how to massage every part of your dog's body, from ears to paws, from tail to tummy, your beloved pooch will be glowing with health and happiness. The funny, affectionate, and oh-so-knowing illustrations by the well-known Swedish artist Bo Lundberg capture every nuance of doggy reactions, and will steal your heart as well! They are utterly endearing.
