Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a delightful, uplifting story about a little brown and white dog with floppy ears that is sent from heaven to impact the lives of people in need. The story begins one rainy night at a city park where a group of homeless people live in homemade shelters. Brenda Talbot, one of the homeless, is awakened by a whining and scratching on her tent. When she cautiously looks out of the tent flap, she sees an adorable Shih Tzu puppy begging to get out of the rain. Brenda takes the dog into her tent and into the hearts of the homeless whose lives are changed forever by the dog they named Oreo. After Oreo's job among the homeless was completed, he disappeared until he mysteriously shows up at a children's hospital hundreds of miles away where he helps restore the will to live of a child thought to be terminally ill. The dog's exploits soon comes to the attention of the Catholic Church which is concerned about the news and social media attention being given the animal and a growing cult of those who think he has supernatural powers. Then, weeks later, Oreo finds his way to a U.S. Customs Border Protection station near the Rio Grande River where he plays an incredible role easing the tensions among detainees who have crossed into the United States illegally. He even defuses a life threatening situation including a young MS-13 wannabe who is holding a U.S. Congresswoman hostage.As time passes, the Church hierarchy becomes more alarmed. The poor, impoverished and disadvantaged begin to proclaim Oreo a Miracle Dog. In Guatemala and El Salvador, where some of the illegal immigrants began their journey to the U.S., roadside shrines are being erected in the dog's honor as more and more people consider him a folk hero sent by God to help alleviate their suffering. This causes a frenzy among church leaders.When the dog is reported to have been found at a rundown animal shelter in Italy, an attempt is made by both a special Church commission and a government agency to capture the animal. The attempt comically fails as over two hundred abused dogs are set free and led to freedom by the Miracle Dog. Then, a terrible earthquake strikes the Italian walled city of Trevi and Oreo shows up just in time to save the life of a child before the apartment in which the child and its mother live collapses. Tragically, the heroic dog's action seems to have caused the loss of his own life, which now results in people from all over the world demanding that he be made a saint for his selfless sacrifice. The dismayed clerical hierarchy conducts a formal inquiry into the matter that ultimately reaches the office of the Pope, himself, for a surprising and absolutely delightful ending.

Book excerpt: The New York Times bestselling authors of The Genius of Dogs take us into their “Puppy Kindergarten” at Duke University, a center to study how puppies develop, to show us what goes in to raising a great dog. Don’t miss Brian Hare and Vanessa Woods in Netflix’s film Inside the Mind of a Dog! “A firehose of knowledge suffused with levity and charm.”—Alexandra Horowitz, author of Inside of a Dog What does it take to raise a great dog? This was the question that husband-and-wife team Brian Hare and Vanessa Woods hoped to answer when they enrolled one hundred and one puppies in the Duke Puppy Kindergarten. With the help of a retired service dog named Congo, Brian, Vanessa, and their team set out to understand the secrets of the puppy mind: What factors might predict whether a puppy will grow up to change someone’s life? Never has cuteness been so cutting edge. Applying the same games that psychologists use when exploring the development of young children, Hare and Woods uncover what happens in a puppy’s mind during their final stage of rapid brain development. Follow the adventures of Arthur, who makes friends with toy dinosaurs; Wisdom, the puppy genius; and Ying, who fails at cognitive games that even pigeons usually pass with flying colors. Along the way, learn about when puppies finally start to retain memories for longer than just a few seconds, or when they finally develop some self-control. Raising dozens of puppies on a college campus means you get pretty good at answering big questions, such as: When do puppies sleep through the night? How do you stop them from eating poop? How can we help our puppies grow up to be the best dogs they can possibly be? Whether you are a new puppy parent or a perennial puppy lover, Puppy Kindergarten will answer every question you’ve ever had about puppies—and some you never thought to ask.
