Where Hunting Dogs Rest
Author: Martin Usborne
Publisher: Kehrer Verlag
ISBN: 9783868285956
Category : Hunting dogs
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
In Spain, it is estimated that up to 100,000 hunting dogs are abandoned at the end of the hare coursing season every year. This book documents those dogs that have been rescued and sets them against the locations in Spain where they are typically abandoned: the sides of roads, the ravines and the empty car parks. Shot in a style that references the tone and mood of Velzquez, who painted at a time when these dogs were treated with great respect, Martin Usborne's photographs show both the classical beauty of the animals and the ugliness of their modern situation.

Understanding Greyhounds; Our Companions Through the Ages
Author: Mary Fox
Publisher: CreateSpace
ISBN: 9781511911320
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
The gentle and sensitive nature of retired and unwanted greyhounds has led to them becoming a popular pet in recent decades, although at times they are misunderstood. Coming down to us almost unchanged through many centuries, they are a kind of living history. This book reflects the timeless enjoyment of owning a greyhound, and combines impressions and advice from centuries past with experiences gained through running a rather unique, non-kennel sanctuary for retired and unwanted greyhounds. In researching centuries-old manuscripts, there are practical and charming snippets of advice on the care and training of our hounds, and much of it is still useful today. From an ancient Greek historian insisting that we regularly speak to our hounds, to a more recent discussion on socializing greyhounds to cats, this book combines some of that useful historical advice with more recent lessons learned from the sanctuary in Ireland. The greyhounds we so enjoy today are a bridge to the owners and greyhounds of the past. In fact, the hounds they were enjoying then are the direct ancestors of the hounds we are enjoying now. They have been, and still are, our companions through the ages.
