This book was released on 2018-08-17 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: cavapoo Cavapoos are a recent hybrid breed of dog with a lineage directly from Cavalier King Charles Spaniels and Poodles. They are not a recognised breed, and their genetics are still very unpredictable. A puppy could have inherited genes predominantly from either gene pool in its lineage. Some Cavapoos have coats that shed regularly, and others have coats that shed very little. The hypoallergenic Poodle gene is not a guarantee because the breed is too recent. Whichever gene pool a puppy may lean towards, one thing is certain - it will grow into a cute and cuddly looking dog with a kind and gentle nature. Cavapoos thrive on human company, are eager to please and train easily because they are intelligent dogs. One thing a Cavapoo is not is an outside dog that gets very little attention! Cavapoos have to be integrated into a household and be part of the family for them to flourish and grow into happy, healthy dogs. In return, they give unconditional love, loyalty and dedication to their family. Cavapoos are excellent companion dogs that enjoy outdoor play, walks and keeping humans company. They are active and need regular exercise and mental stimulation, so training and interactive play are vital. Cavapoos are not an innately aggressive breed of dog and do not make good watch-dogs. They make excellent service dogs and can be trained to do a wide range of household chores. Being working dogs this makes them feel part of the family, and they thrive on the praise they get as a reward. Cavapoos make excellent therapy dogs. That makes them the ideal companion for the infirm of any age who find themselves housebound. Cavapoos' loving nature and adaptability make them the perfect companion, no matter what your lifestyle. If you are considering adding a cute and cuddly Cavapoo to your family, this is the book that will give you all the ins-and-outs of what life with a Cavapoo will be like. Covered in this book: - Behaviour problems - Buying - Costs - Day to day care - Diet - Exercise - Grooming - Health - History - Necessities - Preparing your home - Temperament - Training ... and much more.

Download or read book For the Love of a Dog written by Patricia McConnell, Ph.D. and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2009-07-22 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yes, humans and canines are different species, but current research provides fascinating, irrefutable evidence that what we share with our dogs is greater than how we vary. As behaviorist and zoologist Dr. Patricia McConnell tells us in this remarkable new book about emotions in dogs and in people, more and more scientists accept the premise that dogs have rich emotional lives, exhibiting a wide range of feelings including fear, anger, surprise, sadness, and love. In For the Love of a Dog, McConnell suggests that one of the reasons we love dogs so much is that they express emotions in ways similar to humans. After all, who can communicate joy better than a puppy? But not all emotional expressions are obvious, and McConnell teaches both beginning dog owners and experienced dog lovers how to read the more subtle expressions hidden behind fuzzy faces and floppy ears. For those of us who deeply cherish our dogs but are sometimes baffled by their behavior, For the Love of a Dog will come as a revelation–a treasure trove of useful facts, informed speculation, and intriguing accounts of man’s best friend at his worst and at his very best. Readers will discover how fear, anger, and happiness underlie the lives of both people and dogs and, most important, how understanding emotion in both species can improve the relationship between them. Thus McConnell introduces us to the possibility of a richer, more rewarding relationship with our dogs. While we may never be absolutely certain what our dogs are feeling, with the help of this riveting book we can understand more than we ever thought possible. Those who consider their dogs part of the family will find For the Love of a Dog engaging, enlightening, and utterly engrossing.
