Made famous by Toto in the movie The Wizard of Oz, this dog can be quite a handful, but they will always be small enough to fit in your lap once they are done romping. Their cheerful disposition, lack of fear, and active personality come from centuries of working in Scotland, where they worked to chase small animals, most notably foxes. This means they require a firm, consistent approach to training and applying the rules. This book is designed to help you know what to expect when you adopt a Cairn Terrier. To bring out that adorable personality from the movie, you need to establish a schedule and stick to it. This book will help you make sure that you are prepared for the large personality that comes in such a small package. It will also help you care for your little companion to live a long healthy life. With an average lifespan between 12 and 15 years, you have a lot of time to make a lot of great memories with your little Cairn Terrier.

This book was released on 2019-03-27 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cairn Terrier is one of the oldest breeds of terrier and originates from the Scottish Highlands. The Cairn Terrier is one of Scotland's earliest recorded breeds of working dog. The breed's name is derived from its working purpose: to hunt and chase rodents found between the cairns located in the Scottish Highlands. Unusually the breed tends to be left-pawed, which is a trait that commonly correlates to a superior sense of smell and performance in scent related tasks and hunting. The Cairn Terrier has an abundant, coarse and shaggy outer coat and a dramatically softer undercoat. Despite having a dense and relatively long coat, the Cairn Terrier tends to shed very little. The breed's coat comes in five common colorations which are: black, cream, brindle, deep red and light gray. Despite being a relatively small breed, the Cairn Terrier is a highly playful and energetic dog! It is important to make sure that you properly exercise your Cairn Terrier as, due to its working history, it is likely to develop destructive behaviors if it is bored or has an abundance of energy. As a whole the Cairn Terrier is a known to be an extremely friendly, affectionate and playful breed who generally enjoys meeting new people. It is important to remember that Cairn Terriers are terrier: which means that they are independent, tough, alert and have a high prey drive which may lead to it chasing other small household pets. If you own a Cairn Terrier it is important to train and socialize it thoroughly to minimize the chances of it developing any antisocial behaviors. Before purchasing any pet it is important to understand that as a pet owner you are responsible for the care and wellbeing of your pet. It is important to try and learn as much as you can about the animal you are considering to keep as a pet to make sure that your lifestyle, household and financial status are suited to provide your pet with the best possible care. This guide has been designed to provide you with both precise and concise information about a Cairn Terrier's basic needs to help you provide your pet with the best quality care practices. This guide will give an in-depth explanation on training your Cairn Terrier, raising your Cairn Terrier from a puppy, grooming, health care and everything in between! "The Cairn Terrier: A Complete and Comprehensive Owners Guide to: Buying, Owning, Health, Grooming, Training, Obedience, Understanding and Caring for Your Cairn Terrier," by Michael Stonewood is the perfect purchase or gift for a first time Cairn Terrier owner.

Book excerpt: "For Christmas the woman who would become my wife bought me a dog—a little terrier. The next year her Christmas gift to me was a shotgun. Most of the people in my family believe that those two gifts were not unrelated." So begins Born to Bark, the charming new memoir by psychologist and beloved dog expert Stan Coren of his relationship with an irrepressible gray Cairn terrier named Flint. Stan immediately loved the pup for his friendly nature and indefatigable spirit, though his wife soon found the dog’s unpredictable exuberance difficult to deal with, to say the least. Even though Flint drove Stan’s wife up the wall, he became the joy of Stan’s life. The key to unlocking this psychologist-author’s way of looking at dog behavior, Flint also became the inspiration behind Coren’s classic, The Intelligence of Dogs. Undeterred by Flint’s irrepressible behavior (and by the breeder’s warning that he might be untrainable), Coren set out to prove that his furry companion could pass muster with the best of them. He persevered in training the unruly dog and even ventured into the competitive circles of obedience trials in dog shows, where Flint eventually made canine history as the highest-scoring Cairn terrier in obedience competition up to that time. (Stan chose not to tell his wife that the highest-ranking obedience dog of that year, a border collie, earned a total score that was fifty times higher.) The longest-running popular expert on human-dog bonding, Coren has enlivened his respected books and theories about dogs with accounts of his own experiences in training, living with, loving, and trying to understand them. A consummate storyteller, Coren now tells the wry, poignant, goofy, and good-hearted tale of his life with the dog who (in the words of his own book titles) taught him How to Speak Dog and How Dogs Think and whose antics made him ask Why Does My Dog Act That Way? Illustrated with Coren’s own delightful line drawings and photos, and interwoven with his heartfelt anecdotes of other beloved dogs from his earlier life, Born to Bark is an irresistible good dog/bad dog tale of this extraordinary, willful pooch and his profound impact on his master’s insights into canine behavior as a research psychologist and on his outlook on life as a whole.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The uplifting story of two unlikely mountaineers: a man in late middle age and a fearless pint-sized pup who, together, scale Colorado's highest peaks. By the time life had finished hitting Rick Crandall from all sides, he was at the lowest point of his life, both personally and professionally. Depressed to find himself facing a mid-late-life age crisis and watching his finances crumble as the tech industry bubble burst, he hopes his future isn't headed downhill. It was at this critical juncture in their new marriage that his wife Pamela made an astute and life-changing suggestion: "Let's get a dog." So begins the story of Emme, a 200-pound Saint Bernard trapped in the body of 5-pound Australian terrier puppy. Soon, Emme and Rick hit the hiking trails around Aspen, Colorado. While she is groomed to be a show dog, it's soon obvious that her heart is in the hills and with Rick, who decides to add more challenging hikes to the mix. Before long, they are scaling Colorado's "fourteeners," peaks with altitudes of over 14,000 feet. On one magical day, Emme climbs to the top of four "fourteeners," a quarter of the sixteen such peaks she will complete during her life without once being carried on a trail or on the rocks on the way to a summit. In mountaineering Rick realizes he has found—in his late sixties—his life's new passion. This is where Emme has led him—out of the abyss and to the top of the mountain. She was never really walking behind: she was nudging him along until he found his stride. Even after Rick understood the glory of climbing, it was Emme still doing the leading, until Rick learned how to lead himself.
