Understanding dog psychology
In this book I share my experiences in dog psychology with you and how they ultimately led us to success. I have been working professionally with dogs and their people since 2013. I was able to learn a lot from them and thought it was time to write down the knowledge I had gathered. The basics that throw the dog off balance are often overlooked. We humans tend to approach things in a complicated manner and think things through too much. Even if the cases are individual, I would like to give you incentives, inspiration and, in the best case, even motivation with this book. You will find my experiences and my personal opinion here. My goal with this book is for you to better understand your dog, his and your behavior.
Exotic And Domestic Pets - A Calming Influence In A Stressful Life...
In this book, we will explore some of the most popular and fascinating animals that people choose to keep as pets. People have spent years studying and researching the behaviour, biology, and ecology of various domestic and exotic animals, including cats, dogs, horses, spiders, snakes, and stick insects. Cats and dogs have been domesticated for thousands of years and are some of the most beloved pets worldwide. They are known for their loyalty, companionship, and playful nature. Horses, on the other hand, have a long history of working alongside humans in various activities, including transportation, agriculture, and sports. When it comes to exotic pets, spiders, snakes, and stick insects are some of the most intriguing animals to keep. These creatures may not be everyone's cup of tea, but they have unique adaptations and behaviour patterns that make them fascinating to observe. Spiders, for example, have an intricate web-spinning ability that allows them to capture their prey with ease. Snakes, on the other hand, have a unique way of moving and hunting, which sets them apart from other animals. Lastly, stick insects, also known as phasmids, are masters of disguise, blending seamlessly into their surroundings to avoid predators. In this book, we will delve into the world of these animals, exploring their characteristics, care requirements, and any potential risks associated with keeping them as pets. Whether you are a seasoned pet owner or considering getting your first pet, this book is an excellent resource to learn more about these fascinating creatures. I hope that you will find the information helpful, useful and profitable.

Beyond Obedience
Beyond Obedience is a revolutionary new training program for you and your dog from one of our country's foremost animal advocates and holistic practitioners. The idea that your canine companion is a fully emotional being and acutely sensitive to your changing feelings and moods is the foundation of April Frost's original and highly effective training program. One of the most difficult aspects of training a dog is clearly communicating your intentions. Beyond Obedience is the first book to work on the way you communicate with your dog, providing you with the necessary tools to truly understand how your dog's mind works and, therefore, how you can create an effective and mutually satisfying relationship. Drawing on her extensive experiences as an animal behaviorist, Frost teaches you that training your dog should not be a tedious chore limited to exerting physical and psychological control over an animal's drives, but instead an enriching and spiritually fulfilling experience--gratifying for both human and animal. Frost discusses such essential concepts as mutual respect, unconditional love, mental and emotional discipline, and your expectations and priorities. She shows you how the insights gained from working with your dog can have positive, far-ranging effects on many areas of your life. Beyond Obedience offers valuable insight into the emotional bonds that enrich the lives of animals and their companions.

Duel for the Crown
The epic saga of the riveting rivalry that enthralled a nation and spawned history's most thrilling Triple Crown chase.Affirmed and Alydar are as inseparably linked in legend as they were on the racetrack. Bound from conception by shared bloodlines of the great Native Dancer, this peerless pair of chestnut colts traded wins multiple times even before their showdown in the 1978 Kentucky Derby spurred an unmatchable rivalry that transcended the Triple Crown and the Sport of Kings itself.Their intertwined tale is a study in contrasts as stark as David and Goliath. If Alydar and his human connections personified racing royalty, Affirmed and his team embodied all the underdog outsiders who've had to claw their way into the winner's circle.Alydar was born into Bluegrass aristocracy as the royally bred pride of Kentucky's Calumet Farm, the old-money dynasty that had reigned over the Sport of Kings the same way the Damn Yankees dominated the national pastime. Affirmed, meanwhile, was born into the obscurity of a Florida farm funded by the new-money millions of a controversial Wall Street financier turned nouveau breeder. Contrasting styles made their differences even starker: the laidback Affirmed, all streamlined elegance, gliding with the grace of a deer and the heart of lion, versus the bullish Alydar, all massive muscle and machismo, stalking his nemesis while gearing up to unleash his fearsome closing kick.Riding on their backs were the dreams of colorful human personalities caught up in a battle of wits and wills: Lucille Markey, racing's grand dame entrusting her last chance at restoring Calumet's faded glory to John Veitch, a young Kentucky-bred trainer with a Hall of Fame pedigree. Lou Wolfson, the pioneer corporate raider staking his post-prison shot at redemption on journeyman trainer Laz Barrera, a charismatic Cuban immigrant with a knack for charming the best out of longshots like Affirmed. And, most famously, Steve Cauthen, the teen phenom celebrated as the world's top athlete even before riding Affirmed into the Triple Crown cauldron.The Kentucky Derby may be hyped as "the most exciting two minutes in sports," but Affirmed and Alydar's electrifying stretch showdowns only kept intensifying through both remaining jewels--the Preakness and the Belmont Stakes--of history's hardest-fought Triple Crown series. Duel for the Crown vividly tracks these two magnificent Thoroughbreds through every hoofbeat of their odyssey, climaxing with the Belmont stretch duel in the greatest race ever run as they desperately gallop head to head all the way to the inevitable photo finish--and beyond, into history and immortality.

Dining Al Fresco with My Dog
A widow and her white-muzzled dog, a coastal landscape filled with bully winds, characters who relieve the loneliness of being alone: Sue Fagalde Lick weaves these images throughout Dining al Fresco with My Dog in narratives both vulnerable and brave. Whether floating in her hot tub with memories of her husband or fixing a roof, she proclaims: "I am old, but... / warm dog at my fingertips, / I feel light as the alder tree, / rooted here for eternity". This is a touching celebration of life in poetry at its best.--Carolyn Martin, Ph.D., author of The Catalog of Small Continents Sue Fagalde Lick, in her collection, Dining Al Fresco with My Dog, walks us comfortably into her later life where she is "turning butch in [her] old age...now...wife and husband too." She imagines with humor how a cryptic observer would see her, guiding the reader through her daily routine of dog, pellet stove, writing, and reading, and concludes with, "Eats three times a day, keeps warm, still alive." She shares the richness of her solitude in nature (and the solitary nature of the writing life) but with many forays into the music, humor, and warmth she finds in her community. As a reader, I feel included and deeply satisfied.-Rachel Barton, editor of Willawaw Journal and author of This is the Lightness Grief. Brave attitude. Small triumphs. "Dear dead departed husband, / your being dead and departed / is a major pain in the ass." The widow senses her husband everywhere. Wears his shirts. Stacks the logs. Learns to change a spark plug. Sue Fagalde Lick may make you weep, make you smile. And then, of course, there's the dog. This is a strong book.-Penelope Scambly Schott, author of On Dufur Hill

Horse Training
The process of horse training can be vexing for both the rider and the animal. This guide addresses hundreds of prevalent training challenges and effectively resolves the most critical issues, including managing a horse that refuses to listen and correcting aberrant behavior. By identifying the source of the problem and providing techniques to keep both the rider and the horse engaged and concentrated, Jessica Jahiel assists you in maximizing the benefits of your training sessions by emphasizing the significance of enjoyable surroundings, effective communication, and attainable objectives.A frequent issue arises when a horse rides away from the familiar barn or companions without any problems. Still, whenever the rider attempts to turn back towards home, the horse suddenly bolts. He accelerates with an intense determination, with no intention of halting for any reason. This condition poses a significant risk for novice or unskilled riders who struggle to maintain control and their horse does not respond to conventional stopping techniques. Consequently, they panic and forcefully pull on the reins, exacerbating the situation.The book "Horse Training Guide for Riders: A Guide to Handle and Manage a Horse" provides foundational knowledge for aspiring horse enthusiasts before their first lesson. Just as humans and horses possess unique personalities, it is critical to acquire the ability to discern the personality type of a horse so that one can effectively manage it.
Soulmate Dog
Part love story of one woman's extraordinary relationship with her animal companion, part philosophical examination of the special relationship between humans and dogs, and part exploration of the expanding field of modern integrative veterinary medicine, Soulmate Dog takes readers gently through the messiness of grieving the loss of a beloved animal companion with the story of Michelle Slater and her dog, Brady. "You will love Brady and his soulmate, Michelle. Their journey together-one filled with joy and pain and, ultimately, transformative triumph-will inspire you to be a more grateful, mindful, courageous and loving human." -Sy Montgomery, author of How to Be A Good CreatureMichelle's dog Brady became seriously ill at the age of five (and, according to his veterinarians, should not have survived). Searching for answers, Michelle turned to the growing field of animal communication. Animal communicators argue that anyone can be coached to listen, understand, and respond to animals. Through training with Debbie McGillivray in the art of animal communication, Michelle became semi-fluent in the language of dogs. As a result of their extraordinary conversations, Michelle shares in Soulmate Dog how Brady transformed the way she sees animals-as well as how we as humans love and grieve, and live day-to-day with our animals.Humans are illiterate not just about grief, but about love and daily communication. Love (and then grief) for our pets resides in a place that human vocabulary doesn't exist for; the language of dogs, as taught to Michelle by Brady, makes the love we have for our pets even stronger.

Soulmate Dog
Part love story of one woman's extraordinary relationship with her animal companion, part philosophical examination of the special relationship between humans and dogs, and part exploration of the expanding field of modern integrative veterinary medicine, Soulmate Dog takes readers gently through the messiness of grieving the loss of a beloved animal companion with the story of Michelle Slater and her dog, Brady. "You will love Brady and his soulmate, Michelle. Their journey together-one filled with joy and pain and, ultimately, transformative triumph-will inspire you to be a more grateful, mindful, courageous and loving human." -Sy Montgomery, author of How to Be A Good CreatureMichelle's dog Brady became seriously ill at the age of five (and, according to his veterinarians, should not have survived). Searching for answers, Michelle turned to the growing field of animal communication. Animal communicators argue that anyone can be coached to listen, understand, and respond to animals. Through training with Debbie McGillivray in the art of animal communication, Michelle became semi-fluent in the language of dogs. As a result of their extraordinary conversations, Michelle shares in Soulmate Dog how Brady transformed the way she sees animals-as well as how we as humans love and grieve, and live day-to-day with our animals.Humans are illiterate not just about grief, but about love and daily communication. Love (and then grief) for our pets resides in a place that human vocabulary doesn't exist for; the language of dogs, as taught to Michelle by Brady, makes the love we have for our pets even stronger.
