Preparing Fido&amp;rsquo;s food at home may seem daunting, but it&amp;rsquo;s really not, says Lew Olson in &lt;i&gt;Raw &amp;amp; Natural Nutrition for Dogs&lt;/i&gt;. Olson discusses canine nutritional needs and explains the research on how home-prepared foods, particularly raw foods, can meet pets&amp;rsquo; needs better than commercial, processed dog food. Step-by-step instructions and recipes make preparation easy. The book includes charts with the recipes, instructions on keeping diets simple and balanced, guidelines on preparation, suggestions for finding ingredients, and how much to feed a dog by body weight. There are recipes for healthy adult dogs as well as guidelines for puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with health conditions including pancreatitis, renal problems, gastric issues, allergies, heart disease, liver disease, and cancer. Pet owners seeking to give their dogs a better coat, better skin, and healthier teeth and gums, as well as longer lives and more stable temperaments, are sure to welcome this book.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br clear=&quot;all&quot;&gt;</content>

Some of our greatest thinkers&amp;#8211;Aristotle, Plato, Thomas Aquinas&amp;#8211;and countless animal lovers have been obsessed with this question for thousands of years. Now New York Times bestselling author Jon Katz looks for an answer and finds even more questions as he recounts the lives and stories of the residents of his celebrated Bedlam Farm: Rose, his beloved workaholic sheepdog who runs the farm, and an array of gentle donkeys, industrious chickens, docile sheep, obnoxious goats, and a murderous yet loving barn cat.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Do these remarkable creatures have consciences? Do they possess free will and reason? Do they have a sense of self, or an existence in the spirit world? Do they shape their own lives? Or are we projecting onto them traits we want and need them to have, allowing ourselves to be manipulated into trading food and shelter for what we see as unconditional love?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;With his signature wisdom, humor, and clarity, Katz relates the stories of the animals he lives with and finds remarkable kinships at every turn. Whether it is Rose&amp;#8217;s brilliant and methodical herding ability, Mother the cat&amp;#8217;s keen mousing instincts, or Izzy&amp;#8217;s canine compassion toward hospice patients, Katz is mesmerized to see in them individual personas and sparks of self-awareness. He marvels, too, at the distinctions between the species&amp;#8211;our desire to change and our ability to edit and censor ourselves, and their capacity to live in the now. And yet the differences never keep Katz from fully enjoying, loving, and cherishing his unusual cast of Bedlam Farm characters. Katz&amp;#8217;s reflections on this eternal debate will resonate with anyone who loves dogs, cats, or other animals&amp;#8211;and who wonders about the spirits that animate them and the deepening hold they have on our emotional lives.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;#8220;If no two dogs are alike,&amp;#8221; Katz says, &amp;#8220;neither is there a universal relationship with them.&amp;#8221; Such an observation helps to shine a light on the powerful interspecies connection that is redefining the human-animal bond in our time.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;i&gt;From the Hardcover edition.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br clear=&quot;all&quot;&gt;</content>

She knows who&amp;#8217;s boss (they are) and the myriad ways a loving pet can make you feel guilty twenty-four hours a day. This new edition of Merrill Markoe&amp;#8217;s classic collection of humorous essays gives readers the choicest selections along with brand-new material.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In these razor-sharp essays, Markoe recounts her dogs&amp;#8217; phone chats with animal communicators, her search for past lives, and her brief stint as a stun gun saleswoman. She describes the workshop that taught her how to launch an Internet porn business and another that gave proper instruction in the esoteric art of becoming a dominatrix. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;She shares insight into what it is like to structure your day using only dog rules, how to spot a really horrible restaurant, and what it&amp;#8217;s like to have a romantic dinner with Fabio. There&amp;#8217;s even a bright side to preparing for the apocalypse: &amp;#8220;At last, it is time to forget about fat grams and low cholesterol.&amp;#8221; This enchantingly rambunctious and boundlessly enjoyable book gives you Merrill Markoe at her best. You&amp;#8217;ll devour it in one sitting (and so may your pet).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;i&gt;From the Trade Paperback edition.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br clear=&quot;all&quot;&gt;</content>

It's the single, universal cause of both wellness and illness. While this theory is widely supported in the human medical community, it's still controversial among veterinarians. Dr. Paul McCutcheon examines the all-important health-stress connection while drawing upon the latest scientific thinking and combining it with a comprehensive, preventive, and holistic philosophy of pet care. So if you're among the millions of caring, responsible pet owners who visits the vet more often than your own doctor but still wonders what more you can do for your dog or cat, &lt;i&gt;The New Holistic Way for Dogs &amp;amp; Cats&lt;/i&gt; is the next best thing to a consultation with Dr. McCutcheon.

It's the single, universal cause of both wellness and illness. While this theory is widely supported in the human medical community, it's still controversial among veterinarians. Dr. Paul McCutcheon examines the all-important health-stress connection while drawing upon the latest scientific thinking and combining it with a comprehensive, preventive, and holistic philosophy of pet care. So if you're among the millions of caring, responsible pet owners who visits the vet more often than your own doctor but still wonders what more you can do for your dog or cat, &lt;i&gt;The New Holistic Way for Dogs &amp;amp; Cats&lt;/i&gt; is the next best thing to a consultation with Dr. McCutcheon. If only he saw human patients in his practice, too!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br clear=&quot;all&quot;&gt;</content>

This informative, inspiring book presents representative stories of dogs considered unadoptable by other shelters. They come from many backgrounds: some were abandoned; some prowled the streets as strays; others suffer from mysterious illnesses, serious injuries, or antisocial behaviors that discourage potential adopters. But good fortune led them to Best Friends and the dedicated people devoted to helping them recover and find welcoming homes.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;These compelling, winningly illustrated true stories, each uniquely moving and inspirational, draw upon the experience of veterinarians, trainers, and volunteers to probe a range of tough, touching cases that evoke both the joy and the occasional but inevitable heartbreak that accompanies this work. Each chapter follows a dog from the first day at Dogtown until he ultimately finds (or doesn&amp;#8217;t find) a permanent new home, focusing both on the relationship between the dog and the Dogtown staff and on the latest discoveries about animal health and behavior. We learn how dogs process information, how trauma affects their behavior, and how people can help them overcome their problems. In the end, we come to see that there are no &amp;quot;bad dogs&amp;quot; and that with patience, care, and compassion, people can help dogs to heal.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br clear=&quot;all&quot;&gt;</content>
