Hey, folks. I am once again proud to say that I've finished one of the dog books in my so-called mini-dog library. Spott's Canine Miscellany by Mark Darton makes a wonderful coffee table book. This said, I am glad I've finished reading the entire 93 pages of dog trivia and facts.
Spott's Canine Miscellany by Mark Darton Front Cover |
The dog book contains dog related trivia, facts, medical and behavioral explanations, poems, short stories, sayings and terms that a dog lover should know about.
When it comes to reading about dog trivia, Spott's Canine Miscellany may just be the book for you. |
For instance, did you know that...
- Statistically speaking, female dog bites are twice as many as male dog bites.
- Dogs circle 3 times on average before they settle down in their resting spot. This is probably the reason why most dog beds are round-shaped.
- Dog tail-wagging isn't instinct. They learn this behavior during their first social encounters (most often from their mothers and siblings). By 7 weeks of age, puppies will have learned tail signals which is a necessary skill to be able communicate with others.
Spott's Canine Miscellany even has its own special black ribbon bookmark. |
I just love that I was able find this doggy treasure in a second hand book store.

This book cost me $0.40.
Looks like an enjoyable read. Will have to look for it.
