Publisher: Read Books Ltd
ISBN: 1473379814
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
This early work by S. S. Van Dine was originally published in 1933 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introduction. 'The Kennel Murder Case' is one of Van Dine's novels of crime and mystery. S. S. Van Dine was born Willard Huntington Wright in Charlottesville, Virginia in 1888. He attended St. Vincent College, Pomona College and Harvard University, but failed to graduate, leaving to cultivate contacts he had made in the literary world. At the age of twenty-one, Wright began his professional writing career as literary editor of the Los Angeles Times. In 1926, Wright published his first S. S. Van Dine novel, The Benson Murder Case. Wright went on to write eleven more mysteries. The first few books about his upper-class amateur sleuth, Philo Vance, were so popular that Wright became wealthy for the first time in his life. His later books declined in popularity as the reading public's tastes in mystery fiction changed, but during the late twenties and early thirties his work was very successful.

What Color Is Your Dog?
Author: Joel Silverman
Publisher: Fox Chapel Publishing
ISBN: 1593788630
Category : Pets
Languages : en
Pages : 243
Book Description
This exciting dog training book is based on the original techniques of Hollywood dog trainer and Animal Planet's Good Dog U host, Joel Silverman. In What Color Is Your Dog? Silverman presents his groundbreaking color-coding technique, developed over his thirty-year career training dogs for film, television, and commercials as well as working with killer whales in Sea World. By determining what color is an owner's dog, he is able to recognize and then enhance his dog's behavior, following the techniques outlined in the book.Silverman's advice for new puppy owners is to develop a strong, trusting relationship with their puppies in their first thirty days. He shuns traditional concepts of beginning the puppy's lessons as soon as the puppy comes home; instead he proposes that new owners spend time having fun, building trust, and enjoying the first month of the relationship. By increasing the dog's trust and "like" of his owner, the dog becomes more willing and eager to please and work with his owner/trainer.The main gist of the book comes from Silverman's color system in which five basic canine personalities or temperaments are assigned colors. With the descriptions of the five colors in hand;Blue (a fearful, rather skittish type dog), Green (a more or less bashful pooch), Yellow (the ideal, easygoing companion dog), Orange (excitable, but relatively under control dog), and Red (the hyper, high-strung dog that bounces off the walks as soon as bark);an owner is able to determine which color best matches his dog's temperament and approach the dog's lessons accordingly. The dog owner's goal then is to move his dog as close to the middle of the color spectrum (Yellow) as possible by using the training practices outlined in the book.Silverman devotes a full chapter to each of the five colors, explaining what makes each color type tick and how owners should best handle such a dog.The second half of the book focuses on training tools and techniques and teaching specific cues (sit/stay, stay, come, and no). There is also a chapter for the puppy owner giving helpful advice on special techniques to use for puppies.

What Shamu Taught Me About Life, Love, and Marriage
Author: Amy Sutherland
Publisher: Random House
ISBN: 1588366901
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
While observing exotic animal trainers for her acclaimed book Kicked, Bitten, and Scratched, journalist Amy Sutherland had an epiphany: What if she used these training techniques with the human animals in her own life–namely her dear husband, Scott? In this lively and perceptive book, Sutherland tells how she took the trainers’ lessons home. The next time her forgetful husband stomped through the house in search of his mislaid car keys, she asked herself, “What would a dolphin trainer do?” The answer was: nothing. Trainers reward the behavior they want and, just as important, ignore the behavior they don’t. Rather than appease her mate’s rising temper by joining in the search, or fuel his temper by nagging him to keep better track of his things in the first place, Sutherland kept her mouth shut and her eyes on the dishes she was washing. In short order, Scott found his keys and regained his cool. “I felt like I should throw him a mackerel,” she writes. In time, as she put more training principles into action, she noticed that she became more optimistic and less judgmental, and their twelve-year marriage was better than ever. What started as a goofy experiment had such good results that Sutherland began using the training techniques with all the people in her life, including her mother, her friends, her students, even the clerk at the post office. In the end, the biggest lesson she learned is that the only animal you can truly change is yourself. Full of fun facts, fascinating insights, hilarious anecdotes, and practical tips, What Shamu Taught Me About Life, Love, and Marriage describes Sutherland’s Alice-in-Wonderland experience of stumbling into a world where cheetahs walk nicely on leashes and elephants paint with watercolors, and of leaving a new, improved Homo sapiens.

Category : Reno (Nev.)
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Cinderella and the Vampire, A Cindy Nesbit Mystery How could Mr. Straight Arrow Harvard MBA financial wizard Ty Rhodes be mixed up with vampires? When he disappears, his worried sister contacts Finders Inc. owner Cindy Nesbit. Cindy doesn't believe in vampires but for her best friend and ex-college roommate, she reluctantly agrees to locate the missing brother, Ty, the man who took Cindy's virginity and never called again. Cindy doesn't consider herself an amateur sleuth - she is a professional who locates deadbeat dads, missing birth and death certificates and lost dogs. Vertically challenged with an overcompensating attitude, Cindy follows Ty's trail to north central California and a rustic Club Med for vampire wannabes. Ty appears to be best friend and confidant to Devlin, head vampire and real estate entrepreneur. Or con man? When Cindy is nearly run off the road and later finds a rattlesnake in her bed, she wonders if Ty is involved in the attempts to scare her off, or does he have his own agenda? Is he still the man she used to love? She finds the answers at the bottom of a mine shaft, facing the wrong end of a gun. Cinderella and the Wolf, A Cindy Nesbit Mystery Dogs are disappearing the week before the San Francisco Dog Show. Cindy Nesbit, hired by Ch. Monarch "Rusty" Rustler's owner for added protection, discovers an attitude problem - Dane Wolf, the golden retriever's handler - who doesn't want help from some outside "security expert," but the owner prevails. When the dognappers attempt to steal Rusty, Cindy senses something about the scenario isn't right but can't figure what it is. As different breeds continue to disappear, no ransom notes are received. What's the motive? During the next theft, an owner is killed. Death, accidental or otherwise have increased the stakes; the dognappers have nothing to lose. Cindy and Wolf combine forces to find the stolen dogs and the killers. A disreputable kennel owned by a shady handler goes to the top of Cindy's suspect list, but when she visits the kennel at night, her snooping ends in disaster: she has found the missing dogs, but is caught and imprisoned in a dog crate. After a phone call to the "boss," her captor leaves to collect a fee for "taking care of the little problem." Wolf arrives in time to release Cindy, the police are notified and the dogs are returned to their owners. Despite assurances that the police will catch the perpetrators, Cindy uses her computer skills to trace the phone number of the "boss" - who turns out to be Rusty's owner. As part of the plea bargain, Cindy convinces the courts to turn over custody of Rusty to Dane Wolf. A proud Cindy watches the pair win the big prize at Westminster in New York.
