Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
Learn to communicate with your dog—using their language “Good reading for dog lovers and an immensely useful manual for dog owners.”—The Washington Post An Applied Animal Behaviorist and dog trainer with more than twenty years’ experience, Dr. Patricia McConnell reveals a revolutionary new perspective on our relationship with dogs—sharing insights on how “man’s best friend” might interpret our behavior, as well as essential advice on how to interact with our four-legged friends in ways that bring out the best in them. After all, humans and dogs are two entirely different species, each shaped by its individual evolutionary heritage. Quite simply, humans are primates and dogs are canids (as are wolves, coyotes, and foxes). Since we each speak a different native tongue, a lot gets lost in the translation. This marvelous guide demonstrates how even the slightest changes in our voices and in the ways we stand can help dogs understand what we want. Inside you will discover: • How you can get your dog to come when called by acting less like a primate and more like a dog • Why the advice to “get dominance” over your dog can cause problems • Why “rough and tumble primate play” can lead to trouble—and how to play with your dog in ways that are fun and keep him out of mischief • How dogs and humans share personality types—and why most dogs want to live with benevolent leaders rather than “alpha wanna-bes!” Fascinating, insightful, and compelling, The Other End of the Leash is a book that strives to help you connect with your dog in a completely new way—so as to enrich that most rewarding of relationships.

Book Description
Daisy the Dumpster Dog [FREE eBook, #satire #audiobooks #courtreform #originalism] - a Sordid Tale of Dystopian Hubris and Convenient Canine Rationalizations (But Not a Supreme Court Satire or Parody) by Blade Cort; Book 7 of 7 in the Predictable Paths series. "A Parody of Supreme Proportions! If this is the current state of legal satire, then woe be the system that engenders such drool." Daisy is enjoying a great day, anxiously awaiting the afternoon's dumpster Delights. What? Wait a second. This is where 'Rat Dog' gimps-in from nowhere and sarcastically knocks her oversized ears and stub tail, then treats her friends with equal impertinence. And that's not all. The scrawny, half-breed chihuahua demands his fair share of Delights, angering the lofty purebreds who claim first dibs over lowly mongrels like himself. Perhaps Daisy and friends should collar this impudent, irascible ingrate before he draws them into big trouble with the pedigreed perennial powers that be. Yet the sniveling rat fears nothing and is determined to tussle with the snootiest snouts in the land. Will he succeed - or get popped like the troublesome tick that he is? https://bladecort.com #satire #audiobooks #supremecourtsatire PREDICTABLE PATHS episodes, in sequential order: 1.

Pages : 363
Book Description
She might be wishing for the wrong kind of luck. ***Standalone romance with a HEA*** Georgie Buchanan doesn’t know the first thing about running a brewery—she doesn’t even like beer—so she’s out of her element when she and her siblings inherit their grandfather’s money pit. Her one hope for success lies with River Reeves, the handsome brewmaster who learned at her grandfather’s feet...if she can avoid falling for him. River Reeves is having a rough week. Not only did he lose his friend and mentor, Beau Buchanan, but he’s just been betrayed by his former best friend and business partner. Still, things seem to improve when Georgie offers him his dream job—turning around Buchanan Brewery. Great right? There’s one problem: his new boss is his dream woman, and she’s not the type to mix business and pleasure.

The Rachel Alexander and Dash Mysteries
Author: Carol Lea Benjamin
Publisher: Open Road Media
ISBN: 1504041461
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 585
Book Description
A Greenwich Village PI and her pit bull hunt down killers in these three smart, witty mysteries from a Shamus Award winner. In This Dog for Hire, the debut of New York private detective Rachel Alexander and her pit bull, Dash—short for Dashiell—a hit-and-run leaves a local painter dead and his show dog, a basenji, temporarily missing. After cracking that case, Rachel and Dash return in The Dog Who Knew Too Much to investigate a t’ai chi teacher’s fatal leap from a window. Rachel suspects there’s more involved, as the woman would never have left her beloved Akita behind. Rounding out the collection is A Hell of a Dog, in which Rachel, a former dog trainer herself, must find out who’s killing off trainers at a professional gathering at a posh New York City hotel. With comparisons to the mysteries of Laurien Berenson and Susan Conant, these novels—with “excellent” writing and a “nice touch of humor”—are an involving, atmospheric read for fans of strong female PIs, especially those with furry sidekicks (Library Journal).

Book Description
He loved books. She loved nothing. They began to love each other. Naive to a fault, they were high school seniors who were trying to figure out what to do with life. Then it all ended and what was fantasy became real. Together, they drew on their knowledge from their video games, movies, TV shows, and books and prepared for survival. Warriors emerged from teenagers. Every step was planned out and together they shaped their violence into an unstoppable team, beginning to reclaim what was lost. They began a life together, not the one they wanted, but the one they were dealt, and they swore to stay ahead of the doom enfulging their world, but at what cost? More than anything she wants to find a place, a way, to live again. To live again. To find a life worth living. Captain K. Hutchison, Genuine Apocalypse Aficionado Many of us who spend time thinking about the real possibility of societal breakdown are always on the lookout for insightful answers to the big questions. What will happen? What skills can I draw on to get me through when others cannot? Eppeldauer's story has the answer! This insighful, inventive, and introspective first book of a trilogy on the struggle against the odds of survival is well within the realms of reality and imagination. Tense, riveting, and a new interesting take on post-apocalyptic dynamics.

Languages : en
Pages : 693
Book Description
Toward Spiritual Sovereignty diagnoses societal samodaya (Buddhist terminology for emotional craving). The author uses extensive knowledge and wisdom from masters of ages past and present to refocus the spirit of man (spiritus mundi) on a wholesome re-creation of the world community. Every soul has the divine right to determine his or her sacred path to their unique destiny upon the horizons of learned choice. Political aggression, (governmental power), religious aggression (proselytizing), and financial aggression (voracious capitalism) provide conflict and work against the realization of happiness and wellbeing. These works are an attempt to advocate for the abolition of hindrance toward those ends, to advocate, without fetter, for spiritual sovereignty of every soul.Each person, Homo Divinitas (man of Divinity) should be able to experience life without threat. Threat can manifest in the form of hunger, poverty, illiteracy, illness, or physical/emotional/spiritual aggression. The 21st century provides an atmosphere of escalating violence, and terror, amidst the Middle East in particular, and the world in general. Such as the Roman Forum prior to the turn of the first millennia after Christ, mankind seems unable or unwilling to cease participation in the spiritual morphine of violence whether real, virtual, or vicarious. Mr. Casperson's authorship proposes effective measures for self-enlightenment and effective ways to cope with violence and political and religious terrorism. Comments and e-dialog are encouraged at the johncasperson.com website blog/site.
