Download or read book Dog Food Logic written by Linda P. Case, M.S. and published by Dogwise Publishing. This book was released on 2014-02-12 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Choosing the right dog food in a world with too many choices
Walking down the dog food aisle in a pet supply superstore can present you with an overwhelming number of choices. Reading about dog food on the internet can make your head spin with so many opinions and stories. And judging the content that you find on dog food packaging can be confusing and misleading. How can the average dog owner make an informed choice in accordance with her dog’s age, size and condition? In her latest book, author Linda Case describes how to make logical, evidence-based decisions for what to feed your dog amid all the options available.
You will learn
• How pet food marketers appeal to your emotions to persuade you to buy a particular type of dog food.
• To distinguish between scientific, evidence-based information and the anecdotal evidence which is so pervasive—and often misleading—in the dog food arena.
• Is there a scientific basis for dog foods designed specifically for puppies, senior dogs, canine athletes—even various breeds of dogs?
• How to read and evaluate all of the material included on a typical package of dog food from the ingredients and label claims (“Natural,” “Anti-Oxidant,” “Low Fat”),to the Nutrient Analysis and Nutritional Adequacy statements.
• How to avoid choice paralysis and the cognitive traps that can interfere with clear decision making.
What experts are saying about Dog Food Logic
Pet food is like a religion for many—but now those strong emotional ties can be backed up with fact. Linda Case separates fact from fiction, explains the complex terms and offers a guide to pet nutrition in simple to comprehend language. Unlike other books on this topic, there is no agenda here—except to present facts and then allow pet owners to make their own logical conclusions, letting the kibble drop where it may.

Case deftly navigates the most controversial topics in pet food and presents the big picture without interjecting judgment about what approach is best. There’s something here for everyone: pet care professionals and dog lovers alike will learn something new from this informative, easy to read, and well researched book.

Download or read book Maid written by Stephanie Land and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2019-01-22 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A single mother's personal, unflinching look at America's class divide (Barack Obama)," this New York Times bestselling memoir is the inspiration for the Netflix limited series, hailed by Rolling Stone as "a great one." At 28, Stephanie Land's dreams of attending a university and becoming a writer quickly dissolved when a summer fling turned into an unplanned pregnancy. Before long, she found herself a single mother, scraping by as a housekeeper to make ends meet. Maid is an emotionally raw, masterful account of Stephanie's years spent in service to upper middle class America as a "nameless ghost" who quietly shared in her clients' triumphs, tragedies, and deepest secrets. Driven to carve out a better life for her family, she cleaned by day and took online classes by night, writing relentlessly as she worked toward earning a college degree. She wrote of the true stories that weren't being told: of living on food stamps and WIC coupons, of government programs that barely provided housing, of aloof government employees who shamed her for receiving what little assistance she did. Above all else, she wrote about pursuing the myth of the American Dream from the poverty line, all the while slashing through deep-rooted stigmas of the working poor. Maid is Stephanie's story, but it's not hers alone. It is an inspiring testament to the courage, determination, and ultimate strength of the human spirit. "A single mother's personal, unflinching look at America's class divide, a description of the tightrope many families walk just to get by, and a reminder of the dignity of all work." -PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA, Obama's Summer Reading List

There’s a reason Alison Green has been called “the Dear Abby of the work world.” Ten years as a workplace-advice columnist have taught her that people avoid awkward conversations in the office because they simply don’t know what to say. Thankfully, Green does—and in this incredibly helpful book, she tackles the tough discussions you may need to have during your career. You’ll learn what to say when • coworkers push their work on you—then take credit for it • you accidentally trash-talk someone in an email then hit “reply all” • you’re being micromanaged—or not being managed at all • you catch a colleague in a lie • your boss seems unhappy with your work • your cubemate’s loud speakerphone is making you homicidal • you got drunk at the holiday party Praise for Ask a Manager “A must-read for anyone who works . . .

Download or read book The Other End of the Leash written by Patricia McConnell, Ph.D. and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2009-02-19 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn to communicate with your dog—using their language “Good reading for dog lovers and an immensely useful manual for dog owners.”—The Washington Post An Applied Animal Behaviorist and dog trainer with more than twenty years’ experience, Dr. Patricia McConnell reveals a revolutionary new perspective on our relationship with dogs—sharing insights on how “man’s best friend” might interpret our behavior, as well as essential advice on how to interact with our four-legged friends in ways that bring out the best in them. After all, humans and dogs are two entirely different species, each shaped by its individual evolutionary heritage. Quite simply, humans are primates and dogs are canids (as are wolves, coyotes, and foxes). Since we each speak a different native tongue, a lot gets lost in the translation. This marvelous guide demonstrates how even the slightest changes in our voices and in the ways we stand can help dogs understand what we want. Inside you will discover: • How you can get your dog to come when called by acting less like a primate and more like a dog • Why the advice to “get dominance” over your dog can cause problems • Why “rough and tumble primate play” can lead to trouble—and how to play with your dog in ways that are fun and keep him out of mischief • How dogs and humans share personality types—and why most dogs want to live with benevolent leaders rather than “alpha wanna-bes!” Fascinating, insightful, and compelling, The Other End of the Leash is a book that strives to help you connect with your dog in a completely new way—so as to enrich that most rewarding of relationships.

Download or read book Dog Food for Thought written by Robert Filderman and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-10-19 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Dog" Food For Thought The title of my book is "Dog" Food For Thought. The tagline is The Good, Bad, and Ugly of What You are Feeding Your Pup. The purpose of the book is to give people who own dogs an overview of foods that people eat normally and have a tendency to include in their pet's diet without considering whether they are beneficial or harmful to their animals. When their pets become sick, or they find it necessary to visit the veterinarian often because of a chronic condition, they don't understand that the condition could have been derived from a poor diet. The people that will be reading this book are people who are concerned about what Fido needs to be a healthy pooch but don't have the time to spend hours researching the subject, or even know where to look to find answers. There are few competing books such as this one to be found on the market: Give Your Dog a Bone by Dr. Ian Billinghurst, The Lucky Dog Weight Loss Plan by Vicky Marshall, and Unlocking the Canine Ancestral Diet by Steve Brown. The content in these books, however, is not at all similar to what this book is all about. The premise of the book is not to tell people what to do, but give them the pros and cons of specific foods or ingredients, and let them make their own choices, thus the title "Dog" Food For Thought. Dogs depend on you to feed them correctly. They can't buy food; they don't have money to spend on food, they might have money in some cases, but they don't have pockets to keep it in if they did. So, if you want a healthy dog that doesn't have to go to the vet frequently, be conscientious about their diet. Taking your dog to the vet often can be very expensive. We're going to get into foods that are beneficial and foods that are harmful. We'll examine the pros and cons. Because dogs are carnivores, meat is very beneficial to them: beef, buffalo, salmon, sardines, organs, fish, pork, turkey, venison, lamb, and tuna just to name a few. The leaner the meat is, the more beneficial it would be. Feeding a dog fat trimmings, or excessive fat can cause overweight problems or be hard on their heart. We'll also get into raw vs. cooked. Some people say that you should cook everything, while others say that feeding your dog raw foods is the only way to go. We'll go through both kinds, thus leaving you choices as to what you feel is best for your companion. We'll also go through organic vs. not organic. Feeding your pup what's on the market and easy, but perhaps not healthy, or taking the time to make your own pup's food. There are so many different varieties of foods for dogs out there; it can make your head swim. Some people say that they don't have time to put together food at home for Fido, it's so much easier just to open a can or a bag, fill up the food dish and be done with it. I would say to them, "Is that what you do for your family, or if you live alone, all you do for yourself?" There is an old saying, "You are what you eat, that simply means eat junk and you will suffer, eat well and you will prosper. People don't realize that a healthy dog will have to go to the vet less, so if you are concerned about the time and expense it might be to buy quality ingredients to feed your dog, think about how much that vet bill might be if your pet gets sick on crappy dog food. There are many good websites out there that have great recipes that you can put together, whether you prefer doing a raw diet or a cooked one. You will find that some people don't believe in adding vegetables, but rather supplements, while others believe in the benefit of adding vegetables. Whatever you decide, it's always your choice. The purpose of my writing this book was always to give you a choice. I am only supplying you options. In the end, you have the opportunity to make the final decision, for better or worse.
