Book Description
Si vous tenez ce livre en main, c'est que les chiens vous intéressent ; que vous en avez un ou que vous voulez en avoir un : un chiot, un chien adulte, un mâle, une femelle. Quel que soit le cas, vous voulez en savoir plus pour pouvoir garantir ou améliorer une cohabitation et une connivence harmonieuse qui durera 10 à 15 ans. C'est le but de ce livre : vous y aider. Pour ce faire nous aborderons ensemble le choix de la race, de l'éleveur, du chiot, les théories modernes et la pratique de l'éducation canine, comment comprendre et résoudre les problèmes, l'alimentation et l'hygiène. J'y ai inclus de nombreuses anecdotes et quelques pointes d'humour pour rendre le texte plus digeste. Cet ouvrage laisse transparaître un hymne à l'amour que je porte au chien. Qu'il soit pour vous une passerelle entre la théorie, l'apprentissage et la pratique et un aiguillon pour mieux-faire.

Book Description
Utilisés depuis des centaines d'années, le chien de trait et le chien de traîneau étaient tous deux des chiens de travail, l'un sur la terre ferme, l'autre sur la neige et la glace. Le chien de traîneau a difficilement survécu à l'invasion de la modernité ; le chien de trait a failli disparaître. Tous deux ont été sauvés grâce au dévouement d'amoureux des chiens, de leur bien-être physique et psychique. Les chemins du chien de trait et de traîneau se sont écartés l'un de l'autre sans pour autant se perdre de vue. De nos jours, le trait canin est une activité ludique, de loisirs ou sportive, lors de laquelle les liens homme-chien se resserrent pour leur plus grand bonheur mutuel. Jeune ou vieux, citadin ou campagnard, pantouflard ou sportif, quel que soit le chien que vous possédez ou envisagez d'acquérir, une des disciplines du trait canin vous enthousiasmera !

Book Description
Kathleen Kete's wise and witty examination of petkeeping in nineteenth-century Paris provides a unique window through which to view the lives of ordinary French people. She demonstrates how that cliché of modern life, the family dog, reveals the tensions that modernity created for the Parisian bourgeoisie. Kete's study draws on a range of literary and archival sources, from dog-care books to veterinarians's records to Dumas's musings on his cat. The fad for aquariums, attitudes toward vivisection, the dread of rabies, the development of dog breeding—all are shown to reflect the ways middle-class people thought about their lives. Petkeeping, says Kete, was a way to imagine a better, more manageable version of the world—it relieved the pressures of contemporary life and improvised solutions to the intractable mesh that was post-Enlightenment France. The faithful, affectionate family dog became a counterpoint to the isolation of individualism and lack of community in urban life. By century's end, however, animals no longer represented the human condition with such potency, and even the irascible, autonomous cat had been rehabilitated into a creature of fidelity and affection. Full of fascinating details, this innovative book will contribute to the way we understand culture and the creation of class. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1994.
