    Discover the fascinating similarities between human and canine experiences in this thought-provoking book. Canine behaviour expert Jessica Eden O'Neill draws on her personal and professional experiences to explore topics such as empathizing with nervous dogs, the chaos of dog parks, and the true meaning of being a canine parent. This emotional, authentic, and sometimes comical narrative is a must-read for all dog lovers seeking a unique and entertaining path to canine enlightenment. Through relatable parallels, readers are challenged to reconsider their perceptions of dogs and become better pet owners, ultimately leading to a better understanding of their role in their dog's life.“An engaging, thought provoking, and sometimes humorous look at parenting our dogs. Jessica Eden O’Neill compares the many challenges of raising children and living life with those of caring for our canine companions. Jessica recounts countless, real-life events as she draws parallels with the struggles of dogs in our care. Her sometimes colourful and emotive language is a reminder of the realities we often face. This is not a “how to have a perfectly obedient dog” sort of book; it’s a philosophy and a guide to help us be responsible, kind, empathetic dog parents and to help our dogs be happy.”—Shay Kelly, Canine Behaviour Consultant and author of Canine Enrichment: The Book Your Dog Needs You to Read, Dog Training & Behaviour: A Guide for Everyone, and Puppy Nurture: Raising Your Puppy with Love“O’Neill’s new book cleverly draws parallels between her human home and work life, and the lives of dogs. Through the sharing of personal anecdotes and colorful stories, she is able to convey the intricate, complex, and rewarding relationship we have with our dogs. Her humour is delightful, as she lends a strong voice to “those yelling from the rooftops,” working hard to change the way we think about dogs, “helping owners to reframe their understanding of what dog training should look like.” O’Ne

  • British Independent Bus & Coach Operators - A Snapshot from the 1960s - cover

    British Independent Bus & Coach...

    A pictorial history of Great Britain’s independent bus and coach fleets from the 1960s.  
     
    During the 1960s, many independent bus and coach fleets existed in Britain, and each varied enormously in size and scope of operation. They ranged from major operators such as Barton Transport (Nottinghamshire); Lancashire United and West Riding who operated stage carriage services as well as coach fleets; or Wallace Arnold Tours of Leeds, a major coach touring company in Britain and Continental Europe; to small operators who possessed just a handful of vehicles. The latter were sometimes involved only in private hire work, for such things as outings to sporting events or theaters, school or industrial contracts or often a combination of both. Smaller operators were based throughout the country, sometimes in tiny villages but also in the heart of large cities. 
     
    Often the smaller operators bought redundant buses and coaches from major operators, whether BET, BTC (Tilling) or municipal concerns, or London Transport. Many got bargains from the latter, with surplus RT and RTL double-deckers sold following the disastrous bus strike and service cuts of 1958. Conversely, redundant vehicles bought by independent fleets often brought types that came from as far away as Scotland to London and the southeast. In the 1960s, the oldest buses and coaches with independent fleets were those employed on school or industrial contracts. These were not subject to the rigorous tests governing those carrying fare-paying passengers, so could be kept going until they were literally falling apart! These were known as “non-PSVs,” i.e. non-public service vehicles. On the other hand, some very small independent fleets, often with the title “Luxury Coaches,” took great pride in their fleets. They would purchase new coaches every two or three years and keep them in immaculate condition. 
     
    The net result was that British independent bus and coach operators in the 1960s had a fascinating variety of chassis and body makes and styles, as well as liveries. This book shows many of these as they were between fifty and sixty years ago.
