Download or read book Charlotte the Wonder Dog written by D. C. Gallant and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2008-12 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written with wit and insight, this writer's biography of her dog expands the parameters of the "I love my dog" genre to create a story appealing not only to dog lovers but also to any reader who enjoys a well-turned phrase and a clever take on the timeless story of a Cinderella: A mutt from the dog pound makes good. Oh sure, if you've heard one tale of yet another adorable dog saved from death row, you've heard them all. But meet Charlotte-charismatic, chatty and compelling-who twice lands the four-legged starring role in "Annie," gets her photo in a national newspaper as a community activist, and can lead you to every groundhog hole in historic Jefferson County, West Virginia. D.C. Gallant grew up in the country and, as an only child, found that rabbits, cats, chickens, horses and dogs make great friends and playmates. Her favorite childhood book was The Adventures of Mabel because the heroine could talk with animals, a talent Ms. Gallant aspired to but never attained until she met Charlotte the Wonder Dog.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dogs as Home Companions: A Book for All Dog Lovers Most people are interested in dumb animals, but every normal person loves a dog; it is the heritage of the ages. The man or the woman who hates a good dog is abnormal. There is something fundamentally wrong in their psychical makeup. How often we hear of people of this class who say they can see nothing friendly or desirable in any dog; that they are all alike; vicious and treacherous. The story of the man who writes articles in newspapers and pamphlets advocating the destruction of all dogs because they are a menace to mankind is a common one in every part of the world. A story is told of one of this class - a New England money lender - who took great pains to besmirch the character of the dog in public and private.

Download or read book Dogs as Home Companions written by Albert Frederick Hochwalt and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dogs as Home Companions: A Book for All Dog Lovers There are still many more who feel that they would like a dog for home and children if one could be kept in the city in a satisfactory manner. It is true that the dweller in flats could not have a St. Bernard or a Great Dane tagging about with him, but in many a flat small dogs are harbored and live their lives in the companion ship of their human friends as hap pily, if not more so, than those dogs which live in kennels. I have no brief for the hot - house dog, however, or those that are not living at least part of the time in the open, if it is necessary to give him the entire run of the house, the best chairs to lounge upon day and night, or perchance, the center of a.nice, clean counterpane in the best bed room. That is not my idea of keeping a dog, but nevertheless there is no reason why any person should live a dogless life simply because his home is in the city.
