Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Remember me with tears and laughter. Remember me though it hurts to do so, because the pain you have is equal to the love we shared. There is no goodbye if you carry me in your heart. Remember all the joy we shared, because there was so much of it for both of us." Herbie Longfellow Alderdice Are you a dog owner who is in the process of losing your best friend to illness? Or have you lost your beloved friend and you are struggling to get over them? Pet bereavement is tough. Not everyone sympathises with you. Jeannie Wycherley chose to write this book after the loss of her beloved boy, Herbie, because she was hurt by the repetition of the phrase, "he was just a dog." She realised that her grief transcended that tired notion - one tritely rolled out by people who think they're being helpful and supportive, failing to realise the guilt and shame many pet owners already experience when they are locked deep in mourning. 'Losing my Best Friend: thoughtful support for those affected by dog bereavement or pet loss' offers practical advice about what to do when your dog passes away, including tips on helping your children or other pets cope with the loss, designing your own ceremony to celebrate your dog's life, and creating memorials. In these pages Jeannie Wycherley has created a loving tribute to Herbie, and delivers support with a light and loving touch that validates what you're going through.

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 I Lost My Best Friend Today written by Judy Wright and published by . This book was released on 2013-01-29 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pet Loss Is Devastating,There Are Ways To Help Ease Your Pain... Dear friend, I wonder if you can relate to some of the stories in this book... * Was the decision to euthanize your pet one of the hardest things you've ever done? * Do you have an old or terminally ill pet who you cannot stand the thought of losing? * Do you find yourself denying the inevitable or wondering how you will ever be able to handle the loss when they are gone? * Is your child struggling to understand the death of their pet? * Do you wish you could find the words to comfort a grieving friend or family member who lost a beloved pet, but you don't know what to say to show your support without appearing to trivialize their pain? * Did the loss of your animal best friend trigger unhappy memories or unresolved conflicts of loss from years ago? * Did you find that you were more upset over losing a pet, than losing a parent or relative? All of the contributors knew their pets were more than just animals... they are our closest friends, constant companions, and integral members of the family. Just one of the comments about the book "I can't share how sad I am about my dog, because my co-workers will think I am crazy. But, on the other hand, I inquire about their child's cold and buy their stupid Girl Scout cookies to support them. It isn't fair! Oh God, please don't let me start crying at work again. I heard someone call me a drama queen and say; It's only a dog, not a child. I just need someone to acknowledge my sadness." Each day with our pet is special and brings joy to both the owner and the owned (sometimes it is hard to determine who owns who, do you agree?). No one wants to lose their pet. No one gets an animal anticipating the death of that companion. But the fact is, pets are lost to accidents, disease, old age or they simply wander off and never come home. It's finding ways to deal with the grief that will help you during the difficult time of losing your best friend. Read this book, you will be so glad you did.
