Book excerpt: “A fascinating, informative and highly entertaining expedition through the highways and byways of dogdom.” —John Bradshaw, New York Times bestselling author of Dog Sense A charming meditation on the relationship between humans and dogs, drawing upon history, science, art, and personal experience to illuminate a magical bond that has endured millennia—from the New York Times bestselling author of Just My Type. “Ludo is now an elderly gentleman, and we would do almost anything to ensure his continued happiness. We schedule our days around his needs—his mealtimes, his walks, the delivery of his life-saving medication (he has epilepsy, poor love). We spend a bizarrely large amount of our disposable income on him, and he never sends a card of thanks. When he’s not with us for a few days, the house feels extraordinarily empty. I feel so fortunate to know him.” Ludo is a dog—Simon Garfield’s beloved black Labrador retriever, one of millions of canines who have become integral parts of our lives. But how did the dog become top dog? How did these faithful animals come to assist us not only in hunting, but in bomb disposal and cancer detection—and ultimately become our closest companions? Dog’s Best Friend examines how this bond developed over the centuries, and how it has transformed countless lives, both human and canine. Garfield begins with the earliest visual representations—dogs depicted in ancient rock art—and ends at the laboratory that first sequenced the canine genome. Along the way, we meet the legendary Corgis of Buckingham Palace, the dogs of the Soviet space program, the world’s first labradoodle, and a border collie that can identify more than a thousand different plush toys. Garfield reveals the secrets of the world’s best dog trainers, takes us inside the wild world of dog breeding and dog shows, and unearths the deep psychological roots of the human-dog link. And Ludo pops his snout in from time to time as well. A celebration of this deep interspecies connection, delivered with Simon Garfield’s inimitable wit, Dog’s Best Friend offers delights and insights for anyone who has ever loved a dog.

Book excerpt: A city boy, I had little association with animals, with the exception of a male English bulldog, Fella, who was my best friend until I was fi ve years old. We played together, napped together and ate from the same bowl together when our mother wasn't looking. His broad tongue covered my whole head in two swipes and many giggles. I was fi ve years old when he died but I remember him as though it was yesterday. Th e picture on the front cover is my Fella. He, above all others instilled in me a love for all animals. I grew up in Canada, receiving a doctorate in veterinary medicine at the University of Guelph, Ontario Veterinary College. At the age of nineteen I dedicated the next two years of my life to my church, serving as a full time missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, in France and Switzerland. In the fi nal week of my mission, I had an experience I have recorded in these pages that softened my heart and my head and led me down a path to my future life's work. Th e subsequent adventures are recorded in large part in this book. Life changing adventures and lessons learned in the small family farm barns, often in the dead of night, of central New York and northern Vermont, and within the welcome warmth of my clinic. A word of caution: if a cow has a bad cough from pneumonia, DO NOT stand behind he

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bullmina the Courageous Bulldog Comes Home is the final book in Lita Eitner-Englands Bulldog trilogy. Readers dont need to read the first two books in order to enjoy this last installment. More than 130 years have passed since Trevor Sheffield, Lisette St. Germaine, Matthew Connors, and their friends said goodbye to the duke of Chathamworthshires first Bullmina in London and embarked on new adventures. We are now in Redwood City, California, home to Carey Evers and her dysfunctional parents. The family of Careys grandparents has a history of raising bulldogs, but Careys abusive father, Hank, refuses to let Carey adopt even a rescue dog. Careys grandmother, the indefatigable Nonna Beppa, is the only person keeping Carey sane until Bobbi Weinberg and her family move in with a station wagon full of champion and rescue English bulldogs. Carey and Bobbi become fast friends, bonding over the dogs. Even Careys mentally ill mother, Liz, finds new motivation to live while helping Bobbis mother, Lyndsey, take care of the new litters and tend to the rescue bulldogs. Unfortunately, tragedy strikes twice. Liz comes down with a catastrophic illness, and Hank is convicted of felony vehicular manslaughter. With the help of Bobbis father, Dr. Josh Weinberg, and both Lyndsey and Bobbi, Carey must navigate these uncertain waters and build a new future. She discovers that her life and Bobbis are more intricately tied together than she could ever have imagined, bringing new conflicts that threaten to tear both families apart until the unconditional love of an abandoned rescue bulldog saves the day, and Bullminas legacy lives on for more generations to come. This book also includes a bonus short story about an irresistible Siberian husky named Payasito (little clown). Proceeds from all book sales are being donated to animal rescue organizations around the country.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “To have a service dog like Able should be the medication any soldier is prescribed who has gone out and had trauma of some kind.” In Hope Has a Cold Nose, Christine Hassing relays true stories of military veterans and others who rose from the ashes of PTSD and MST with the help of their service dogs. Devoting every chapter to a different human-canine pair, Hassing shares the story of each person with PTSD and their service dog with pathos and creativity. These powerful stories, part testimonial, part author’s interpretation using rhythm and rhyme, bring important insights about how service dogs help people with PTSD and MST in countless ways. From sensing a nightmare and waking a veteran before terror takes hold, to placing a comforting paw on someone’s shoulder to ward off a panic attack, these dogs play a key role in helping those who’ve lived through trauma reintegrate into society. Lovingly written, Hope Has a Cold Nose is a unique and compelling collection of survivors’ stories for dog lovers of all kinds, for those who’ve experienced PTSD and their loved ones, and for those interested in how service dogs can help people heal from the deepest emotional wounds.

Book excerpt: You knew it was wrong and can't understand why you did it. What drives us to do these wrong things? Why are we sometimes so out of control? Have you ever asked yourself these questions? Most of us have, perhaps on a daily basis. The Bible attributes our doing the wrong thing when we really want to do what is right to the influences of sin spirits upon our lives. Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin (sinful spirits) living in me that does it. Ro. 7:20 NIV. . I call these sinful spirits Daily Demons (DDs). These DDs are Satan's little helpers who try to influence our decisions by continually sowing various sinful Daily Temptations (DTs) in our lives. The goal of this book is to make readers more keenly aware of these sinful influences that attacks and tempts them every day. We need to be aware of these influences and we must also understand how to resist and keep them under control. Problem is sin is very sneaky. It enters your life a little at a time and before you realize it you are surrounded by it. The danger in being around sin is you become use to it. Once you become acclimated to sin the next step is you begin to assimilate sinful acts

When he first enlisted, he expected to see death and destruction, but he didn't understand just how much it would haunt him. He came to realize just how nightmarish war could be when he returned from his first tour. He awoke in the night, unable to understand where he was. He grabbed a knife and tried to take down the enemy. But it wasn't the enemy. It was Callie. Horrified and ashamed, George broke things off with Callie. And while he was gone for another tour, neither of them moved on. Now, he is back in town, injured and starting his life over again. And it is his hope that Callie will be a part of it. But can they overcome their past and his demons to be together?

I think that is why we are all here, the purpose we serve in our life through some time or another, through some way, shape or form is to save someone else whether you know it or not.

Book excerpt: Young, freshly married, and pregnant with her first child, Nicole Clark is met with devastating news: she has cancer, stage 2B. Suddenly, amid the hope she feels for this new life, she finds herself face to face with death. This leads her to reflect on her childhood in rural New Brunswick, through her romance with her husband, to the unimaginable predicament she now faces. Only five days after the birth of her first child, Nicole starts chemo. This is only the beginning of the harrowing experience she must endure. As she raises her daughter, she must ferry herself to doctor’s appointments and chemo sessions, dealing with her husband’s long absences for work as he tries to make money to support them through what no one should have to experience. All the while, she is forced to wonder: will she be around to see her daughter grow up? Then comes the pain of missing Christmas with her daughter, of being unable to bring herself to take baby pictures because of how little she wants to be remembered this way, of having to conceal the hopelessness her sickness brings on. Nicole is forced to reckon with what really matters: time with her family, and the pleasure of a night without nausea or a shower without a medical incision. She learns what someone going through cancer most needs from others: just being there. And through this, her faith and compassion grow. Only two years after beating cancer the first time, Nicole relapses—and this time, it’s more aggressive. She is told she will never again have a child. But with faith, miracles can happen—and her life proves a testament to this elusive truth.

It must be a prank. Two days later, I’m working at the garage in my dirty blue coveralls with grease smudged on my face, and he shows up to ask again. I’m floored. What’s this guy up to?

Book excerpt: Every Sunday evening, millions of viewers tune in to 60 Minutes to hear Andy Rooney riff on everything from coffee percolators to the state of the union. Millions more read his weekly newspaper column. Why? Because Rooney tells it like it is. But Rooney fans have never seen him quite like this. Andy Rooney is plain frustrated by what's going on in America and the world. Why can't Americans -- let alone our president -- speak English anymore? How do we expect to fight a terrorist enemy that we can't even locate? And when did capitalism go so terribly wrong? This book isn't all heady stuff, though. Readers will also get the familiar -- and hysterical -- Rooney gripes about everyday foibles, such as the impossibility of physically locating your driver's registration, of purchasing a genuinely healthy breakfast cereal, or of enjoying a college reunion -- unless everyone ends up in their nighties, that is. PublicAffairs is pleased to present its fifth collaboration with Andy Rooney. Loyal Rooney fans and anyone who enjoys a good laugh at life's absurdities will be thrilled to add it to the bookshelf during the holidays.
