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.

Remember, though, this breed’s huge size means it takes up a lot of physical space - on your bed, on your sofa, on your lap, and especially in your heart – which is where he or she will always want to be! What's more, raise a Great Dane alongside other animals, and you will have no problem. They crave company regardless of whether their ‘brother’ or ‘sister’ is a Pug or a Pointer. Like all big dogs, though, they need to be trained as puppies and learn how not to throw their considerable weight around! Great Danes love to range, meaning they need space to move around freely rather than intense exercise. So if you are welcoming a Dane into a small-size home, be ready to go out on regular walks. If you are thinking about making a Great Dane a part of your family or are already a Dane owner, then be aware, a Great Dane is a huge commitment. From choosing your Great Dane to managing his or her final journey across the Rainbow Bridge, read on and discover everything you need to know about these big-hearted hounds.

Download or read book Bet My Soul on Rock n Roll written by Jean Beauvoir and published by Chicago Review Press. This book was released on 2022-03-22 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The life and career of Haitian American musician Jean Beauvoir, a member of the legendary New York City punk band the Plasmatics Jean Beauvoir joined the Plasmatics in 1979, playing bass and keyboards for the most notorious band to emerge out of the New York City punk scene. By 1982, he was a member of Little Steven and the Disciples of Soul, a retro-rock revival act headed by Steven Van Zandt. The Disciples of Soul videos played on MTV during the network's earliest years, making Beauvoir one of the first Black recording artists to cross the start-up music channel's "color line." Beauvoir went on to become a multi-platinum artist, producer, and songwriter. Bet My Soul on Rock 'n' Roll follows his ride through the American music industry, detailing his encounters with rock stars such as Bruce Springsteen, Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons, and Lita Ford, as well as the actor Sylvester Stallone, the billionaire executive Richard Branson, and even Donald Trump. Beauvoir also considers the manner in which his Haitian heritage has shaped his public image, his music, and his role as an activist for the dispossessed and the poor. Beauvoir's collaborations—and stories—span genres, including work with KISS, Debbie Harry, Lionel Richie, and the Ramones

Download or read book Something Red written by Jennifer Gilmore and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-03-30 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Jennifer Gilmore’s first novel, Golden Country, was published, The New York Times Book Review called it "an ingeniously plotted family yarn" and praised her as an author who "enlivens the myth of the American Dream." Gilmore’s particular gift for distilling history into a hugely satisfying, multigenerational family story is taken to new levels in her second novel. In Washington, D.C., life inside the Goldstein home is as tumultuous as the shifting landscape of the times. It is 1979, and Benjamin is heading off to college and sixteen-year-old Vanessa is in the throes of a rocky adolescence. Sharon, a caterer for the Washington elite, ventures into a cultlike organization. And Dennis, whose government job often takes him to Moscow, tries to live up to his father’s legacy as a union organizer and community leader. The rise of communism and the execution of the Rosenbergs is history. The Cold War is waning, the soldiers who fought in Vietnam have all come home, and Carter is president. The age of protest has come and gone and yet each of the Goldsteins is forced to confront the changes the new decade will bring and explore what it really means to be a radical. Something Red is at once a poignant story of husbands and wives, parents and children, activists and spies, and a masterfully built novel that unfurls with suspense and humor.

Download or read book Waves of Faith written by Jennie Bailor and published by Author House. This book was released on 2012-06-26 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After years of failed relationships, Faith Kase, a twenty-something vet tech from mountainous Vermont, literally runs into the one thing she has always desired: true love. Cole Richards, an infatuation from school, is everything she remembers, only better. Caught in a brilliant explosion of raw passion and spell-binding adoration, their connection quickly defies the average relationship. Only when tragedy uproots her fairy tale happiness does she become consumed with the missing link. Her maternal grandmother, Louise--who lives in Newport, and is her one other familial extension besides her mom--proves easy enough to find, but in forming that relationship she destroys another, losing herself. In this heartwarming drama, Faith, a naturally passive-aggressive avoider, must re-define all that she knows: her hope in the future, and distinguishing between the life she was convinced she was meant to have and the life which now awaits her. With unwavering help from her small, tight-knit inner circle, she finds what the dynamics of prayer and support can do, and encounters an extraordinary being who lifts her up from her downward cycle, lighting her path, and enforcing the power of what faith in all that is good can truly accomplish.

Download or read book The Girl in the Red Coat written by Roma Ligocka and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2016-01-12 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This poignant [Holocaust memoir] does honor to all children bewildered by horror and injustice.” —Thomas Keneally, author of Schindler’s List When she first saw Schindler's List—to whose premiere in Germany she was invited—Roma Ligocka suddenly realized she was witnessing a part of her own life. She felt instinctively that the little girl in the red coat—the only spot of color in the film—was her. When she had lived in the Krakow ghetto during the Second World War she had worn a strawberry-red coat given to her by her grandmother. Unlike the girl in Spielberg's film, however, Roma survived the war. Startled by this eerie conjunction of art and reality, Ligocka determined to write the story of her own life, to find out what had become of the little girl, and to measure who she now was. From a harrowing childhood under the Nazis, described with a simplicity and innocence that lends it even greater power, through the trials of living in Communist Poland, to a career in the theater and film (an artistic struggle paralleling that of her cousin, Roman Polanski), Ligocka traces her struggle for self-definition and happiness. The Girl in the Red Coat is a courageous and moving story of survival and triumph. “This is not only a Holocaust memoir but also a story of one woman’s quest for contentment.” —Booklist “A fascinating work that reads like a novel.” —Library Journal
