Dog Books

Doral Publishing is known world wide for dog books on such topics as breeding, training, search and rescue, agility, nutrition, and showing. Why only dog books? Because we believe in doing one thing and doing it well. Dr. Al Grossman, the founder and publisher of Doral Publishing, has a wealth of experience in dogs, showing and raising them for over forty years. That wealth of experience has also attracted a wealth of talented authors to Doral Publishing and we pride ourselves on the high quality of our books.
