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 Alaska Safe In God s Arms written by Joyce Tucker and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2016-08-09 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alaska in the 1960's was truly the Last Frontier. It had recently achieved statehood as the 49th U.S. state on January 3, 1959, about two years before I arrived with my husband, an Alaskan Aleut. The population at the time was mostly native Alaskans of different tribes such as Eskimo, Aleut, Tlingit, Alaskan Athabaskans and others. In the village where I lived the natives were part Aleut, Russian, Irish and Swede. The village in 1960 was a small, close-knit community of about 60 people. They were all related to each other in some way. When I lived there I was the only white person from the lower 48th in the village. These are entries from a diary I kept in a spiral-bound notebook. They are an account of my day-to-day life as a young married woman living in Alaska. I hope you see the hand of God working in my life, and the many times He was present, miraculously protecting me and delivering me from harm, both physically and spiritually. I promised my sister, before she died of cancer, that I would write this book about my life and adventures in Alaska.
