Would you like to know what happens to dogs following their life on earth? Have you lost a special furry friend and found the grief immeasurable? Have you wondered how you will cope when your furry friend dies? Would you like to have an ongoing connection with your dog following his death? Would you like to improve your communication with your dog? The answers to these questions and more can be found in The Soul of a Dog. Dr. Nicol Louise and her canine co-author, Cinda the curly-coated retriever, offer guidance that allows dog lovers to really explore whats going on in the world as their dogs see it. Cinda shares her dogs-eye view to give readers a rare glimpse into the personalities of dogs, why dogs continue to visit earth and support their human neighbours, and why dogs have a limited level of free will in comparison to humans. This handbook offers practical guidance on working through issues of grief and loss. Death does not mean disconnection from love, and impermanence is a transition from a physical being to a timeless and limitless energetic being.
Download or read book K 9 Structure Terminology written by Edward M Gilbert Jr. and published by Dogwise Publishing. This book was released on 2017-02-23 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Structure: the foundation for health and function What sets apart the average dog enthusiast from the expert? Often it’s an in-depth knowledge of the anatomy of the dog and a solid understanding of terminology used in the world of dogs. Do you know what a judge is talking about when he mentions “stifle let-down,” “shallow brisket,” or “excessive angulation?” K-9 Structure and Terminology defines and illustrates these and hundreds of other terms in easy to understand language so you can train your mind and eye to evaluate dogs. All dogs need sound structure for health, show, work, or sport, and, by learning to see beneath the skin the reader will be more able to work with, understand, and appreciate canis familiaris. Gain a better understanding of: • Breed Standards including breed variations. • How the original purpose of the breed is expressed in the structure of the dog. • Terminology used in veterinary care and dog sports, especially Conformation. • How to identify what is right and sound in any dog you encounter. Bonus! A 31-page glossary of words including common and less common terms. What experts are saying about K-9 Structure and Terminology: "If you wish to significantly improve your knowledge of canine conformation, K-9 Structure and Terminology provides a…comprehensive description of the details…of canine variation. And it does so with a clear focus on the importance of establishing a common terminology that can be understood and applied." James W. Edwards, Ph.D., Professor of Biology, Emeritus, Salem College; AKC, Director, Judging Research and Development "All of us in the dog world should strive for perfection…We need to train our eyes and our hands to recognize the strengths in a dog’s structure and movement. This book is an excellent guide in our unending quest of applicable knowledge." Pat Hastings, author of Tricks of the Trade. From Best Intentions to Best in Show, AKC Judge and noted lecturer Edward M. Gilbert is a multiple breed and group AKC judge, lecturer, and writer. His engineering and technical writing background makes him especially well-suited to the task of explaining canine structure and terminology. He lives in California with his wife Pat and their retired Champion Afghans and Salukis. Thelma Brown, AKC Emeritus judge, worked side by side with her husband Curtis Brown breeding and showing dogs beginning in 1937. She is retired and living in California.

Download or read book The Egg and I written by Betty MacDonald and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 1987-08-05 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Betty MacDonald married a marine and moved to a small chicken farm on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State, she was largely unprepared for the rigors of life in the wild. With no running water, no electricity, a house in need of constant repair, and days that ran from four in the morning to nine at night, the MacDonalds had barely a moment to put their feet up and relax. And then came the children. Yet through every trial and pitfall—through chaos and catastrophe—this indomitable family somehow, mercifully, never lost its sense of humor. A beloved literary treasure for more than half a century, Betty MacDonald's The Egg and I is a heartwarming and uproarious account of adventure and survival on an American frontier.
