The Slightly Chewed Dog Breed Guides

Welcome to Slightly Chewed Guides

Think of this as the bookshelf your dog would build… if they had opposable thumbs and a thing for good grammar.

Here you’ll find our growing collection of breed-specific guides — practical, factual, and just cheeky enough to keep you reading. We start with the Dachshund (small legs, big personality) and the French Bulldog is hot on their heels. By the end of the year, there’ll be four breed-specific books sitting pretty here, plus a general dog guide with a twist — a fresh perspective we’re keeping under wraps for now.

Every guide is written to help you make life with your dog as happy, healthy, and stress-free as possible. We mix the important stuff (health, training, behaviour) with the fun stuff (quirks, games, and the occasional dog’s-eye view of life). No fluff, no fuss — just the kind of advice you’ll actually use, with the odd laugh thrown in.

Serious about dogs. Not so serious about ourselves
