What exactly is a Bernedoodle? It's cross between a Bernese Mountain Dog and a Poodle, and according to fans of this newcomer to the hybrid world, it's downright adorable. Sherry Rupke of SwissRidge Kennels was the first breeder to deliberately cross Bernese Mountain Dogs and Poodles. Rupke loved everything about the gorgeous and sweet-natured Bernese, except for the short-lived breed's genetic propensity for cancer. Plus it sheds. And it can be a little stubborn. Rupke knew from experience that adding Poodle to the hybrid equation could create a intelligent, lively, healthy and low- to non-shedding dog that fits the average person's lifestyle. At least, that's what happens when a breeder takes her work as seriously as Rupke does. Over the past decade, she's built her Bernedoodle program carefully to ensure that each scrupulously health-checked breeding dog has an impeccable pedigree, a calm temperament, and great conformation. In "Bernedoodles: A Head to Tail Guide," Rupke takes readers on a journey from her early days of breeding purebred dogs to establishing her highly successful hybrid program. This comprehensive, easy-to-read and entertaining book covers everything you need to know about this amazing hybrid. Since Bernedoodles can vary significantly in size, build, coloring, and even personality, prospective owners need advice from someone who knows the breed inside out. Who better than the breeder who created them?* Learn how to find a responsible, reputable breeder who can help you choose the Bernedoodle pup that best suits your family and lifestyle. * Educate yourself about the basics, from housebreaking to care and feeding, health and wellness, and grooming. * Discover the best techniques for training Bernedoodles (and any dog) with the help of Rupke's partner, Lucas Mucha. * Enjoy anecdotes and testimonials from owners of SwissRidge Bernedoodles, along with stunning photos. If you're looking for a fun, affectionate, trainable, and allergy-friendly dog that will happily join you for any activity, the Bernedoodle is the hybrid for you-and this book will help you find and raise your new canine best friend.

Many people probably think that all the fuss that breeders and fanciers make over their purebred dogs how they look, how they move is unnecessary. Why do the teeth need to be just so? Why does a judge do such a thorough hands-on evaluation of twenty dogs that to most of us look so much alike? The answer lies in the fact that purebred dogs are bred for a specific purpose and that the structure of the dog impacts its ability to do what it has been bred for be it retrieving game, guarding livestock, tracking lost people, or pulling sleds full of supplies to a snowed-in village.

On my bucket list – to be with two men. I’ve always had a bucket list of things I want to do before I’m thirty. One of those items is being loved by two men. Maybe it’s strange, but I decide to go for it. I hire two alpha males from a website that specializes in this kind of thing. But when Raider and Ryan show up, the breath exits my body in a whoosh because they’re gorgeous. My two male escorts are huge and growly, with penetrating blue eyes and six pack abs that make my mouth water. They’ve got sculpted biceps and war hammers that would make a Viking tremble. Not only that, but they into *each other* too. It’s the hottest thing I’ve ever seen. But a bucket list is a bucket list, and permanence was never part of the bargain. Ryan and Raider are hired guns, and our encounter was only supposed to be a one-time thing. So what happens when the two alpha males discover I’m having their baby? Will they want to be daddies, or will this remain a one-time fling? Our feisty heroine finds out that CURVES are exactly what these handsome, gorgeous alpha males are looking for. Even better, Raider and Ryan are looking to become daddies, and Amy is just the sassy woman they have in mind. Warning: Swords cross in this story, but you'll enjoy the drama. No cheating, no cliffhangers, and always an HEA for my readers!

Learn to communicate with your dog—using their language “Good reading for dog lovers and an immensely useful manual for dog owners.”—The Washington Post An Applied Animal Behaviorist and dog trainer with more than twenty years’ experience, Dr. Patricia McConnell reveals a revolutionary new perspective on our relationship with dogs—sharing insights on how “man’s best friend” might interpret our behavior, as well as essential advice on how to interact with our four-legged friends in ways that bring out the best in them. After all, humans and dogs are two entirely different species, each shaped by its individual evolutionary heritage. Quite simply, humans are primates and dogs are canids (as are wolves, coyotes, and foxes). Since we each speak a different native tongue, a lot gets lost in the translation. This marvelous guide demonstrates how even the slightest changes in our voices and in the ways we stand can help dogs understand what we want. Inside you will discover: • How you can get your dog to come when called by acting less like a primate and more like a dog • Why the advice to “get dominance” over your dog can cause problems • Why “rough and tumble primate play” can lead to trouble—and how to play with your dog in ways that are fun and keep him out of mischief • How dogs and humans share personality types—and why most dogs want to live with benevolent leaders rather than “alpha wanna-bes!” Fascinating, insightful, and compelling, The Other End of the Leash is a book that strives to help you connect with your dog in a completely new way—so as to enrich that most rewarding of relationships.
