Today, they retain strong instincts for herding and hyper-vigilance, as well as being eager and highly trainable. They’re an agile and active breed, yet unlike many working Collies, their small size means they don’t seek to run around all day long. Shelties are quite happy with an hour of off-leash exercise, then home to snuggle up with the family as loyal and affectionate lap dogs. Sophisticated, playful, and idiosyncratic, Shelties excel in many roles: as service dogs, in the show ring, in agility, and as photogenic canine actors. They’re the sixth smartest dog breed on the planet, capable of learning hundreds of words, responding to facial expressions, and even social gestures like pointing (a skill that’s beyond chimpanzees). Armed with this inside information on Sheltie intelligence, you can teach your dog how to play hide-and-seek, perform amazing tricks, and even categorize and tidy her toys. Shelties: The Complete Pet Owner’s Guide is a labor of love, detailing every aspect of caring for your pet from puppyhood to old age. Enjoyed by new Sheltie adopters and long-time fans alike, you’ll revel in the 140+ gorgeous Sheltie photos from pet owners all over the world, while following the story of Casale’s own two English Shelties, Howard and Piper.

Shelties were originally developed as herding dogs in the Shetland Islands of Scotland and their herding instincts are often apparent even in a more urban setting. In the absence of livestock, Shetland Sheepdogs will happily herd cats, squirrels, and neighborhood children. These small-statured but sturdy canines are particularly devoted to their families and have developed a reputation as Velcro dogs due to their preference for staying as close to their human companions as possible. While Shelties make excellent companion animals, they were bred to be very active dogs. They require a great deal of physical and mental exercise throughout their lives in order to remain happy and healthy. Fortunately, they are also extremely intelligent and can excel in many different roles, including those of canine athlete, show dog, animal actor, or therapy/service animal. In these pages, you will find all of the information you need to ensure that your curious and clever pup grows into a confident, content, and well-mannered canine companion. Choosing a Shetland Sheepdog for your canine companion means you will always have an energetic and loyal cohort to share your adventures with, but if you aren’t careful, he may very well outsmart you. This book covers every aspect of owning a Sheltie, from choosing the perfect canine companion for your home to making your precious pooch’s senior years shine.

Book Synopsis Home at last by : Bette Anunson Anderson
Download or read book Home at last written by Bette Anunson Anderson and published by Page Publishing, Inc. This book was released on 2020-03-13 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are, indeed, lucky to inhabit the world with Bette and her team. Her impact is inspiring, and her resolve even more so because, like so many true heroes, again and again, she willingly stepped outside of her life and into the lives of others when it was needed the most; and while she makes it sound easy, make no mistake, to feel, give, and love as fully as Bette has involves extreme sacrifice. Thank you, Bette. Betsy Banks Saul CEO Heal House Call Veterinarian Founder Petfinder.com and 911FosterPets.com "The stories Bette Anderson shares in –Home At Last– True Lost Dog Stories are heart-warming and inspiring. Bette and her team combined remarkable instincts, sleuthing skills, tenacity, and compassion to make many families whole again. While others may have written off these pleas for help saying, ‘It's just a dog,' Bette knew these were lost family members and took up each challenge as a personal crusade. Others would have been defeated by extreme weather conditions and downright bad odds but not this team! There are angels among us, and Bette and her team are chief amongst them. Having been in animal welfare work, I've seen and lived stories that could harden the softest of souls. Even so, Bette's book elicited more tears than this old dog should have left to shed. I know –Home At Last–True Lost Dog Stories will inspire others to get more involved in helping their neighbors—two and four-legged alike." Jim Tedford, CAWA President and CEO Society of Animal Welfare Administrators (SAWA) "I found myself pulled into the reality of each dog's story in such a way that it seemed I was right there with the people who made a difference. Feeling the angst of each situation, followed by an uplifting resolution was heartwarming. Indeed, there are real guardian angels amongst us, helping lost pets. It is rare to discover individuals as dedicated as those portrayed in this book." Darlene Larson ASPCA Senior Director, Community Initiatives (Retired)
Book Synopsis Traveling Backward by : Elayne Wareing Fitzpatrick
Download or read book Traveling Backward written by Elayne Wareing Fitzpatrick and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2009-07-06 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TRAVELING BACKWARD is a highly original philosophic romp beyond the youth of old age with a quixotic ‘journalist turned mom turned academic turned peasant.’ It’s a kind of light-hearted guide to the wisdom of the ages—from Socrates to existentialism and beyond—gleaned during a struggle to recover the images that fi rst touched her heart and to answer two questions: Who am I really? Where does the world come from? It’s a colorful, occasionally poignant, journey that could help you look at life through the reverent eyes of a child again. GLIMPSES OF ‘TRAVELING BACKWARD’ : “You two remind me of Peter Pan. Trouble is, I’m not sure which one of you is Peter Pan. Well, I was taken aback. But my mate took action. Muttering something negative about fairy stories, he headed for the door and disappeared down the hall. I started to follow him but changed my mind. Instead, I headed for the public library to reread Peter Pan. Had I missed something?” (Elayne Wareing Fitzpatrick) “Human life – indeed all life – is poetry. It’s we who live it, unconsciously, day by day. . . Yet in its inviolable wholeness it lives us, it composes us. . . We are works of art, but we are not the artist. . . Dare everything, need nothing.” (Lou Andreas—Salome) “I relate to [Andreas—Salome’s] passionate struggle for truth, to her ultimate reverence for all life, and to her desire to enjoy intellectual friendships with a variety of men, free of sexual overtones.” (Fitzpatrick) “I was discovering that, deep down, I didn’t really ‘take’ to popular culture, crowds, and bustling cities, regardless of my curiosity, regardless of my journalist’s delight in writing about all of it.” (Fitzpatrick) “If you can’t change the world, change worlds.” (St. Francis of Assisi) “If I were ever to choose a place away from my country, it would surely be a Greek island, outside Athens. . . In Greece, I feel completely at home. Maybe that’s because, as the poet Shelley said, ‘We’re all Greeks. Our laws, our literature, our religion, our arts have their roots in Greece.” (Fitzpatrick) “Back straight and head held high, he would place his left arm on my right shoulder, snap his fingers and lead me in the graceful, deliberate movements of the Zorba dance, accompanied by a recording of Mozart’s 40th played on the bouzouki. This against a backdrop of tinkling goat bells and singing monks gathered in a distant church.” (Fitzpatrick) “Many of the highs and lows in my life. . . have resulted from conflict born of the struggle between my own strong loving, nesting needs and my equally strong needs for freedom to think, to adventure, to discover, to express myself.” (Fitzpatrick) “All parts of this one organic whole – this one God – are different expressions of the same energy, and they are all in communication with each other, influencing each other, therefore parts of one organic whole.” (Robinson Jeffers) “How did matter happen that makes the stars and cool planets and living beings? And how did the space happen that contains the stars and planets?. . . Much is still very hypothetical. Much is still unknown. Much, we will never know. . . Life is struggle, pain and suffering. But it is also extraordinarily glorious creativity.” (Dr. Kai Woehler) “Like Socrates, I’ve experienced an inner voice that usually let’s me know when I’m about to go off-track, and I’ve come to believe, with Kant, in a moral law within.” (Fitzpatrick) “Nature’ – wonderful and awe-inspiring as it is – can’t participate in a verbal dialogue, can’t exchange and explore ideas with the human mind. We can relate to the animals, the birds, the insects, the fish, and the flora with our most primitive instincts and feel joy, spiritual ecstasy in so recognizing our kinship. Yet nothing in Nature can compare with the human need for a warm
Book Synopsis Shetland Mist by : Heather Leslie Hammer
Download or read book Shetland Mist written by Heather Leslie Hammer and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2022-10-21 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ann Leslie, wife of a fisherman-farmer and mother of nine, faces one tragedy after another on a wind-swept coast in the far-northern Shetland Islands of the 1800s. Her two-room crofthouse and rocky plot of land leased from the wealthy landowner can hardly produce enough wool and grain. When her husband is gone at sea, what sustains her? Though Ann is poor in material goods, she is rich in spirit. She draws strength from the ministers and neighbors she meets in Christian worship. Though she trusts in God, she bares her doubts in prayer: What disaster will befall her next? What good is God in the face of great loss? What comfort will sustain her through trials she never imagined? Readers will ask themselves the questions that plague Ann, for who doesn't struggle with what to expect of a partner, how to keep children safe, and where to find God in life's losses and uncertainties? Shetland Mist tells how one resilient woman musters the courage to keep going even when she can barely detect a path forward through the thick and gloomy mist.
