THE BULL TERRIER By Williams Haynes A VINTAGE DOG BOOKS CLASSIC REPRINT Originally published in 1912, this extremely scarce early work on the Bull Terrier is both expensive and hard to find in its first edition. VINTAGE DOG BOOKS have republished it, using the original text as part of their CLASSIC BREED BOOKS series. The author was a much respected authority on various breeds of dogs, but favoured the Bull Terrier above all. Written in the author's own inimitable style, the book's one hundred and thirteen pages consists of seven detailed chapters: The "White 'Un." - The Bull Terriers History. - Training the Bull Terrier. - Terriers in Health. - Terriers When Sick. - The Principles of Dog Breeding. - Dog Shows and Their Rules. This is a fascinating read for any Bull Terrier enthusiast or historian of the breed, but also contains much information that is still useful and practical today. Many of the earliest dog breed books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. VINTAGE DOG BOOKS are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

The Dogs - Human Animals (English, German, Hardcover): Vincent Lagrange The Dogs - Human Animals (English, German, Hardcover)
Vincent Lagrange
R654 Discovery Miles 6 540 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

"... Any dog devotee will put it right on their coffee table the second they open it." -Christina Vercelletto, CNN Underscored "...a magnificent collection of photos of animals looking sweet, innocent, thoughtful, tender and sublime." -Dave Johnson, Forbes What makes dogs so unique? They are the only species that favour the company of humans over their own kind. A dog looks at us with a deep understanding and empathy perhaps greater than our own. In this charming book of dog photography, Vincent Lagrange records this treasured intimacy with our four-legged friends. Applying the techniques of portrait photography, which he learned in his youth at his father Marc Lagrange's studio, he captures our canine counterparts in crisp, perfectly illuminated pictures that allow their own soulful personalities to shine through. Text in English and German.

Stella is a Saluki, a purebred Arabian Desert princess and somewhat of a diva. Much to her chagrin, she has fallen into the hands of a family of infidels and is forced to reside with them and their revolting common dog. She, on the other hand, dreams of a life amongst her fellow Bedouin canines, roaming the deserts and hunting for game. Stella spends her time plotting a regime change, passing her days in "captivity" by tormenting both the infidels who think they own her and their dog. This is the diary of a sleek canine princess, who documents her days with her "owners" and the methods she employs to torment them. The story takes place over a two-year period in the home of British ex-patriots living in Saudi Arabia. This clever novel will take you where you have never gone before. Living With Infidels: The Diary of a Saluki - A Hound's Tail is a story you will not soon forget. First-time author Karen Ibbotson was inspired to write this tale by the crazy antics of her dogs. Born in North Yorkshire, she currently lives in Saudi Arabia. Publisher's website: http://www.strategicpublishinggroup.com/title/LivingWithInfidels-TheDiaryOfASaluki-AHoundsTail.html

Stephen Poxon
R659 Discovery Miles 6 590 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

"Within what I hope will become this dog-eared work" says Stephen Poxon, "365 shaggy dog stories are homed with verses of Scripture to encourage, inform and possibly even amuse. Use them as a dog might treat a puddle - to gaze upon with curiosity, to dip into, or to have a jolly good splash around. It might be that a line from a reflection will lead you towards a deeper concept. It might be that a thought provides a timely contemplation for the day, relevant to your circumstances and concerns. A year's worth of delightful reflections on dogs known and loved, each leading into a consideration of some aspect of God's character. "It is my prayer, as a dog devotee who tries to follow God, that these readings bring reminders of His love. As the seasons change and experiences vary between good, bad, and indifferent, may our relationship with a loving Heavenly Father remain a rewarding constant."
