Book excerpt: “Based on the latest findings in the field of canine cognition and behavior, this book is an invaluable resource.” —Hal Herzog, author of Some We Love, Some We Hate, Some We Eat: Why It's So Hard To Think Straight About Animals Every dog owner knows that along with the joy can come the stress and frustration of behavioral problems, which are expensive to diagnose and treat. Enter Kim Brophey, award-winning canine behavior consultant. Using cutting-edge research, Brophey has developed a groundbreaking system that allows owners to identify what their dog is struggling with, why, and how they can fix it. Brophey’s approach is unlike anything that has been published before and will give dog owners a new understanding of what motivates and affects their dog’s behavior. This innovative technique rethinks the way we categorize dogs, and distills information from over twenty scientific disciplines into four comprehensive elements: learning, environment, genetics, and self. With revolutionary tips for specific dog breeds, this book will change dog owners’ lives—and lead to happier human-canine relationships. “It’s refreshing to finally find a book that takes into consideration the many predispositions to behavior problems in dogs . . . teaches us to really see the dog in its entirety.” —Alexandre Rossi, author of A Dog at the Keyboard

Download or read book Guide to Bulldog Breeding For Novice written by Barry C Glenn and published by . This book was released on 2021-06-18 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bulldog's heavy, thick-set, low-slung body with wide shoulders gives it a low center of gravity. The massive head, of which the circumference should equal at least the height of the dog at the shoulder, gives ample room for muscular attachment for the strong, wide jaws. The limbs are sturdy, the gait loose-jointed, shuffling, and rolling this is not a breed that needs to run! The coat is fine and glossy. With the most distinctive mug in dogdom, the Bulldog has an equally distinctive history. The Bulldog's origin lies in the cruel sport of bull baiting, which originated in England around the thirteenth century. The dog's purpose was to attack and madden the bull by grabbing it, usually by the nose, and not releasing its grip. Not only was this considered entertainment, but it also was believed that a bull's meat was tastier if the bull was baited before being butchered. Some Bulldogs were also set against bears for bear baiting, purely for entertainment. Bulldog owners set great store by their dog's ferocity and, especially, fortitude in the face of pain so much so that horrifying stories exist of owners proving their dog's toughness by demonstrating that it would hang onto the bull despite being tortured or mutilated by the owner.

Download or read book The Bulldog written by John Williams and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2013-12-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book you will learn all the main aspects of properly raising and caring for a Bulldog. The book covers the origin of this breed and the proper way to train this beautiful dog. You will learn about the Bulldog's temperament, its important history and the maintenance and training your dog will need. This book teaches how to avoid mistakes in training due to not understanding the temperament of the Bulldog breed. Finally, many breeds have their own ailments and the Bulldog is no different. You will learn about the various ailments of the Bulldog and what to look for as it ages. Your Bulldog makes a great watchdog, courageous to a fault when it comes to defending his family and territory, albeit very sweet and sociable. Instead of being lively, he is as dignified as his expression suggests, with a kind and sometimes stubborn, nature. Easygoing and friendly, your Bulldog will get along with everyone. He can be slow to learn. However, once he has learned something, he'll never forget it. Rarely a barker, his appearance is enough to scare off any possible intruders. The Bulldog is very different from the mastiff-type dogs who were his ancestors. The breed was entirely developed in Old England. First mentioned in 1500, the fierce dogs were utilized in what was known as bull-baiting, both a practical activity as well as a popular sport where the dog would grab a bull's nose and roughly shake it, causing the bull to lose its balance and fall to the ground where the dog held tight to keep the animal pinned. After Bulldogs came to the U.S., one by the name of Donald - a brindle and white Bulldog - was shown in 1880 in New York. In 1886, Bob, another Bulldog, was registered with the AKC. H.D. Kendall, from Lowell Massachusetts, formed the Bulldog Club of America in 1890. At first, this club used the English breed standard, but felt it wasn't exact enough for them. In 1894, they put together an American standard for the American-bred Bulldog. The British reacted in protest to the name, along with some of the details of the new standard. Over time, the standard was re-done and came to be accepted in 1896; it is still the standard today. In 1890, the AKC recognized the Bulldog breed. Bulldogs rose in popularity during the 1940s and 1950s so that they were near the top 10 breeds. According to the AKC, the breed ranks fifth out of different dog breeds and varieties that are listed in the AKC registry - a true tribute to his standing as a companion dog. Above all, the Bulldog breed as it is today stands as a triumphant example of the human ability to alter an entire breed, making it into an affectionate, desirable companion through dedicated, careful breeding practice. During the 1800s, some cities - like Rome - had laws forbidding Bulldogs to be walked on the streets, even leashed, because of how ferocious they were. Yet, only a few years later, the Bulldog was becoming known as a most tranquil and friendly dog; all due to some very dedicated, patient, knowledgeable breeders with a vision of how a Bulldog could be at its best. He can live literally anywhere, adores children, is loyal and affection and very easy to care for. In fact, the Bulldog, today, is probably one of the gentlest dogs there are. Have your new pup checked by a vet within a few days of his coming home with you. Your vet can then advise you concerning general healthcare of your Bulldog, feeding, preventing heartworms, deworming and vaccinations. Until he's had all his vaccines, always carry your Bulldog in a crate or in your arms when you take him to the vet. As with anything worthwhile, owning a dog involves not only pleasure and company, but responsibility as well. The fun parts are obvious, but you must also be aware of the responsibilities, not only for your dog, but also for other people and the neighborhood or anything around him. Owning a dog requires a conscious approach to everything that is in his/her environment.
Download or read book The Bulldog and the Helix written by Shayne Morrow and published by Heritage House Publishing Co. This book was released on 2019-05-21 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A investigative reporter traces the role of DNA evidence in two groundbreaking murder cases involving young girls killed two decades apart in the same town. In 1977, the industrial town of Port Alberni was shaken by the brutal murder of twelve-year-old Carolyn Lee, who had been abducted while walking home from her dance class. In 1996, the town was devastated again when eleven-year-old Jessica States disappeared while chasing foul balls at a local fast-pitch game, her lifeless body later found beaten in the woods. At the time of States's murder, Shayne Morrow was working as a reporter for the Alberni Valley Times. His interest in forensic science led him to cover the States case and relate it back to the Lee case, which had gone unsolved for years. In his coverage, Morrow gained unprecedented access to the investigators and scientists who were on the trail of both killers. Emerging DNA technology in the mid-1990s led to a renewed interest in the Lee case and ultimately to the conviction of her killer, Gurmit Singh Dhillon, in 1998. The technological mechanisms put in place during that case would lay the groundwork for the capture of States's killer, Roderick Patten, a year later. The Bulldog and the Helix is a riveting portrait of a town rocked twice by the most heinous type of crime imaginable and a community's unrelenting search for justice.
