Book Synopsis Tales from a Dog Catcher by : Lisa Duffy-Korpics
Download or read book Tales from a Dog Catcher written by Lisa Duffy-Korpics and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2009-04-01 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tales from a Dog Catcher is based on the author's experiences in a smallish city in the northern suburbs of NYC. Reminiscent of both All Creatures Great and Small and Marley & Me, it offers the stories of everyday people who, whether by accident or design, come into contact with the sad, funny, and often profound world of an animal control officer. It both entertains and charms, and is funny, touching, and heart-breaking by turns. These are real-life stories about people and their experiences with animals.
Download or read book Critter Capers written by Lee Wittek and published by Bbm Press. This book was released on 2002-10 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tales from the Dog-catcher who captures your heart. A "must read" for anyone with an interest in animals of any kind. Critter Capers offers a collection of short stories and gentle humour easily shared and enjoyed by a broad range of age groups, from early teens to adult. Over his 2+ decades as an Animal Control Officer Wittek's "career leap" was anything but dull, with duties ranging from the simple collection and adoption of stray and abandoned pets, to the rescue of animals whose curiosity and lapse in judgement trapped or otherwise jeopardised their safety. In Western Nevada, due to its often rural nature, animal control also includes dealing with a variety of wildlife -- the occasional bear, cougar, or deer--that try to choose city life over their native mountains and foothills. With the humour and compassion that made Wittek an outstanding animal advocate, Critter Capers shares with readers many of the adventures and misadventures that he encountered on a day-to-day basis.
Book Synopsis More Than a Dog's Tale: A Life With Dogs and Other Animals by : Linda Mack
Download or read book More Than a Dog's Tale: A Life With Dogs and Other Animals written by Linda Mack and published by Mandorla Books. This book was released on 2019-09-14 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dog-catchers seldom get their due, and they do more than catch dogs. "Animal Control Officer" doesn't quite catch the full meaning of the job either. Other animals besides dogs can be involved-pigeons, ferrets, goats, cats, monkeys, snakes, squirrels, rats, and the occasional Bighorn Sheep. More than a few surprises happen in the course of a normal workday or night. At least they did in the 1980s when Linda Mack, Animal Control Officer Two, patrolled the streets of Seattle. Linda was not raised by wolves, but their descendants were always family. Living and working with dogs and with other animals was more enjoyable than a barrel of monkeys. Besides being fun, More Than a Dog's Talerecognizes that animals are medicinal, and good dog medicine can't be beat as a natural remedy for many of the bumps and maladies of real life. More Than a Dog's Tale is a collection of stories by the Seattle dog catcher who has a top tier IQ, and a heart that's even bigger than her mind. Animal lovers be forewarned! You won't be able to put this book down. You'll fall in love with every manner of animal, and the dog catcher who saves them, and saves herself. Within these pages are true stories of rescue, of love, and of what matters in life. -Kit Kirkpatrick, Certified Memoirist
