Book Description
The active and industrious Cairn Terrier is a charming and sweet companion dog, whose legendary appearance in the Wizard of Oz solidified the breed’s celebrity for generations. Breeders today continue to refer to the breed as the ‘Toto dog.’ As a companion to children, a family watchdog, an accomplished show dog and competition dog, and a ‘verminator’ around the home, this terrier breed fits into most homes and living situations. The breed is as useful as it is endearing. The Cairn Terrier developed in Scotland alongside his fellow Scotts dogs, the West Highland White Terrier, Scottish Terrier, and Skye Terrier. Author Robert Jamieson retells the origins of the breed and spells out the many characteristics that recommend the Cairn Terrier as an ideal pet for the right family seeking a bright, easy-care companion dog. New owners will welcome the well-prepared chapter on finding a reputable breeder and selecting a healthy, sound puppy. Chapters on puppy-proofing the home and yard, purchasing the right supplies for the puppy as well as house-training, feeding, and grooming are illustrated with photographs of handsome adults and puppies. In all, there are over 135 full-color photographs in this useful and reliable volume. The author’s advice on obedience training will help the reader better mold and train into the most well-mannered dog in the neighborhood.

Sidebars throughout the text offer helpful hints, covering topics as diverse as historical dogs, breeders, or kennels, toxic plants, first aid, crate training, carsickness, fussy eaters, and parasite control.

In the last year, Briony Gossage's life has been turned upside down by a nasty divorce, the loss of her parents, and a nightmarish new boss. To top it all off, she's now an empty nester, feels unloved, is lonely, depressed, and totally stressed about turning fifty. She desperately wants to reinvent herself but doesn't know how until a letter from a lawyer changes the course of her life forever. A total stranger has died and left the bulk of her estate to Briony.

Book Description
Once in a great while, a book speaks to us with such honesty and grace that by the time its final sentence echoes in the mind, its truth has found a permanent place in our hearts. Leaving With Love is such a book. On one level, it is the story of a year in the life of Dorothea Stephens-Stevie to those she loves-as she seeks to understand the long-held patterns and imprinting which have entangled the "heart connections" she makes with friends, family and especially lovers. But Leaving With Love's depth cannot be measured in a single calendar year. As Stevie's journey unfolds like a revelation, we witness every step in her unflinching yet heartfelt search for the one person she must inevitably cherish above all others-herself. Leaving With Love is a remarkable literary debut. It is at once a love story, a meditation on the enduring power of family, and a travelogue of the heart. It proves, as few books in recent memory have, that only when we depart from old patterns can we finally arrive at new truths.

Book Description
The rise and increasingly important role of companion animals in our families From homemade meals for our dogs to high-end feline veterinary care, pets are a growing multi-billion-dollar industry in the United States. In Just Like Family, Andrea Laurent-Simpson explores the expanding role of animals in what she calls “the multi-species family,” providing a window into a world where almost 95 percent of adults who share their homes with dogs and cats identify—and ultimately treat—their animal companions as legitimate members of their families. With an insightful eye, Laurent-Simpson examines why and how these animals have increasingly become an important part of our households. She highlights their various roles in our lives, including as siblings to our existing children, as animal children themselves, and in some cases, even as grandchildren, particularly as fertility rates decline and a growing number of younger couples choose to live a childfree lifestyle. Ultimately, Laurent-Simpson highlights how animals—and their place in our lives—have changed the structure of the American family in surprising ways. Just Like Family provides a fascinating inside look at our complex relationships with our beloved animal companions in the twenty-first century.

Book Description
In the tradition of the beloved New York Times bestsellers Marley and Me and Oogy: The Dog Only a Family Could Love, a charming, inspirational memoir about empathy, resilience, kindness, and an adorable deaf blind pink dog. When Connecticut veterinarian Melissa Shapiro gets a call about a tiny deaf blind puppy rescued from a hoarding situation in need of fostering, she doesn’t hesitate to say, “yes.” Little does she know how that decision will transform her, her family, and legions of admirers destined to embrace the saga of the indomitable pink pup. One of the most anxious dogs Melissa had ever encountered, the traumatized Piglet weighed under two pounds upon his welcome into the Shapiro household—which included Melissa’s husband Warren and their three college-aged kids, plus six other rescued dogs. After weeks of reassurance, and lots of love, Piglet connected, gained confidence, and his extraordinary spirit emerged. Melissa soon forged a powerful bond with Piglet, allowing the two to communicate without sound or visual cues. Two months later, when the day arrived to say good-bye to the now dashing, six-pound pink boy dog with the larger than life spirit, Melissa faced a heart-wrenching decision. Could she hand him over to someone willing to give Piglet the full-time attention he required or could she adapt her schedule and her household to make a permanent place for him in her life and work? Of course, the answer was simple: love would find a way. Curious, engaged, and incredibly eager to learn, Piglet quickly became part of the family. What started out as a few simple Facebook posts of Piglet and his pack rapidly evolved into a global celebration of Piglet’s infectiously positive mindset. Piglet: The Unexpected Story of a Deaf, Blind, Pink Puppy and His Family fully illustrates this heartwarming story of one special little puppy with a purpose to teach the power of empathy, love, and kindness.
