Launched at the FCI Centenary Winner Show, and now available exclusively through OUR DOGS at shows and through our online bookshop, this book for the first time shows the locomotion of dogs in a completely new light. It is based on a study funded by the Society for the Promotion of Canine Research and VDH member associations and conducted under the leadership of Professor Dr. Martin Fischer in Jena.
The combination of the book, and the web site takes us to new levels of information and accessibility and each book contains a slip giving the reader a personal access code to the website.
