    About this ebook

    Feed the Dog, an illustrated dog history e-book from Puppy Care Education.

    This book provides a short review of the history of feeding practices for domestic dogs up to the 1930s, including the development of packaged dog foods in the late nineteenth century.

    In only a hundred and fifty years the dinner of most pet and working dogs has gone from whatever it could get to a massive range of ready made dog foods that is bewildering for owners.

    This is a short historical reference e-book in dog writer Amy Fernandez’s well-researched dog history series.
