Book Description

Publication Date: Mar 3 1998 | Series: Happy Healthy Pet (Book 63)
This is our seventh set of Happy, Healthy Pet titles. These latest additions will bring our series up to fifty-five titles, and like the others, they are books pet owners can turn to for the essential information they need to raise a healthy pet. All books contain information on
  • feeding
  • housing
  • grooming
  • health care
  • what to expect from the pet
  • basic training
As our series expands and focuses on different kinds of pets, the emphasis remains on making the pet a companion. In addition, owners of more unusual pets will particularly appreciate the expert advice in these books because professional care for their animals may be difficult to come by. As always, the instruction is from experts -- people who know their pet intimately, but also remember what it was like to have one for the first time. Happy, Healthy Pet guides are rich with professional quality color photos and are designed to be enjoyable and easy to learn from.

Product Description

From the Back Cover

At last, a book for frog and toad owners that provides complete information on how to keep these fascinating animals. You'll learn all you need to know about setting up the right kind of housing for your frog or toad—be it a terrestrial, aquatic or semiaquatic species. You'll also find out how to properly feed your pet, how to keep your frog or toad healthy, including proper house-cleaning, and how to handle your pet so that both of you remain in top condition. Best of all, this book provides a detailed discussion of over 50 species that are widely available in the U.S., with fabulous photographs of both the favorite pet species and of exotic frogs and toads from around the world. Info-packed sidebars make caring for your pet easy and enjoyable.

I liked this book alot. It's pretty informative and mentions alot of different species of frogs/toads. I have toads, and it was hard to find a book about them. It's also great for beginners.

For the money, probably the best value on the subject. Very informative. Lots of color pictures. Describes dozens and dozens of animals, with feeding, housing, climate and related information. Also lists resources in back of book: where to find live food and climate equipment, as well as additional reading material. And much, much more. Wow!
