www.hubbleandhattie.com The Hubble and Hattie imprint was launched in late 2009, when its first book was published, and is named in memory of two very special Westies owned by Veloce's proprietors.

Since then, many more books have been added to the list, all of them with the same underlying objective: to be of real benefit to the species they cover, at the same time promoting compassion, understanding and co-operation between all animals (including human ones!)

It goes without saying that all Hubble and Hattie books have the same high quality of content, presentation and production as our motoring books, and - because of their competitive pricing - also offer terrific value for money.

Many more publications are planned throughout 2012.

Look out for fascinating and informative books about creating a dog-friendly garden, life skills for puppies, and travelling with your canine companion, amongst others.
