Download or read book Golden Retriever written by Nina Pustova and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2023-05-21 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Golden Retriever Introduction to the Breed The Golden Retriever is a popular and beloved dog breed known for its friendly temperament, intelligence, and beautiful golden coat. They are a medium to large-sized breed with a sturdy build and a kind expression. Golden Retrievers are cherished as family pets, therapy dogs, and working dogs in various fields. Origins and History The Golden Retriever breed originated in the 19th century in Scotland. The credit for their creation goes to Lord Tweedmouth, also known as Sir Dudley Marjoribanks. He aimed to develop a loyal and versatile retrieving dog that could thrive in the Scottish climate and assist in hunting and retrieving game, particularly waterfowl. Lord Tweedmouth selectively bred his dogs, crossing the now-extinct Yellow Retriever (an ancestor of today's Flat-Coated Retrievers) with the Tweed Water Spaniel, Bloodhound, Irish Setter, and more. The breed that emerged from these crosses became the foundation for the modern Golden Retriever. The breed's popularity grew steadily, and in 1913, the Golden Retriever was officially recognized by the Kennel Club in the United Kingdom. Shortly after, they gained recognition in the United States as well. Over time, Golden Retrievers gained recognition for their exceptional hunting abilities, intelligence, and gentle nature, which made them sought after as both working dogs and family companions. Today, Golden Retrievers are cherished worldwide for their versatility and adaptability. They excel in various roles, including search and rescue, therapy work, guide and assistance dogs for individuals with disabilities, as well as competing in obedience, agility, and other dog sports. Their warm and friendly nature also makes them highly popular as beloved family pets.

Download or read book The Dog in the Dickensian Imagination written by Beryl Gray and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-23 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fascinated by them, unable to ignore them, and imaginatively stimulated by them, Charles Dickens was an acute and unsentimental reporter on the dogs he kept and encountered during a time when they were a burgeoning part of the nineteenth-century urban and domestic scene. As dogs inhabited Dickens’s city, so too did they populate his fiction, journalism, and letters. In the first book-length work of criticism on Dickens’s relationship to canines, Beryl Gray shows that dogs, real and invented, were intrinsic to Dickens’s vision and experience of London and to his representations of its life. Gray draws on an array of reminiscences by Dickens’s friends, family, and fellow writers, and also situates her book within the context of nineteenth-century attitudes towards dogs as revealed in the periodical press, newspapers, and institutional archives. Integral to her study is her analysis of Dickens’s texts in relationship to their illustrations by George Cruikshank and Hablot Knight Browne and to portraiture by late eighteenth- and nineteenth-century artists like Thomas Gainsborough and Edwin Landseer. The Dog in the Dickensian Imagination will not only enlighten readers and critics of Dickens and those interested in his life but will serve as an important resource for scholars interested in the Victorian city, the treatment of animals in literature and art, and attitudes towards animals in nineteenth-century Britain.

Book excerpt: An unputdownable feminist revenge thriller from a bold new voice in the genre. INTRODUCING A THRILLING NEW VOICE IN CRIME FICTION 'Fast paced, gripping and topical, without ever losing its heart, Daughters of Eve will have you questioning notions of justice and retribution, and just how far you would go to protect the ones you love.' - Jacqueline Bublitz, author of Before You Knew My Name 'Highly original...I was hooked from start to finish.' - Sara Foster, author of The Hush When a high-profile murder lands literally at her feet, Detective Emilia Hart sees a chance to expand her caseload beyond the endless succession of domestic violence matters she is forced to investigate. But this is no simple investigation. Another body turns up, then another. Then more - a lot more. All men, all shot, with a similar MO. It's not until a manifesto taking credit for the crimes is published by a group calling themselves Daughters of Eve that Hart confirms a link between the victims: all of them had been perpetrators themselves. All had offended against women or children. Few had been charged with those crimes - and none convicted. As panic sets in and chaos rules the streets, the police draw ever closer to the Daughters of Eve, but the serial killer continues to elude them. Again, Hart sees something that everyone else has missed. And what that is, she cannot believe. A stunning debut that will take you to the edge and dare you to look down. 'Strap in for a wild, fast and furious ride. A propulsive, addictive read that tackles big, real issues - add it to your "must read" pile immediately.' - Sarah Bailey, author of The Housemate 'With twists and turns that will keep you guessing, this is an electrifying, thought-provoking thriller.' - Petronella McGovern, author of Six Minutes 'Explosive and confronting. Nina D. Campbell is a new talent in crime fiction. One to be watched.' - Fleur McDonald, author of Deception Creek
