Sinopsis

Spaniels are some of the most popular dog breeds, fulfilling working and companion roles in society. While spaniels are typically sociable, outgoing, optimistic and friendly, they have retained many traits reflective of their working gundog origins, such as hunting, retrieving, speed and stamina. These remain essential for working Spaniels, but for Spaniels and their caregivers who find themselves in a more domestic situation, these traits can sometimes prove challenging. This book is an essential guide for anyone who lives with or is thinking about living with spaniels and wants to understand them more. Written by a canine scientist with decades of experience with cocker spaniels, this book explores the origin, care, management and training of spaniels. It considers how to develop a responsive and supportive relationship with your spaniel, and examines practical and fair training approaches to support health, welfare and behaviour in a clear and accessible way.

    History of Argentina - From the...

    Argentina's history is a rich tapestry that can be divided into four distinct periods: the pre-Columbian or early history (up to the sixteenth century), the colonial period (1530–1810), the nation-building period (1810–1880), and contemporary history (from approximately 1880 to the present). Each phase shaped the region, transforming it from sparsely inhabited land into the modern Argentine Republic. 
    Human presence in what is now Argentina dates back approximately 13,000 years, with evidence of early settlements in Patagonia. Archaeological findings suggest human activity through the Paleolithic, Mesolithic, and Neolithic periods. However, a significant depopulation of large interior areas occurred between 4000 and 2000 B.C., likely due to a prolonged period of drought. Over time, indigenous peoples in the region evolved into diverse cultural groups with varying levels of complexity. 
    Uruguayan archaeologist Raúl Campá Soler categorized Argentina’s indigenous peoples into three groups: basic hunters and food gatherers without pottery; advanced gatherers and hunters; and basic farmers who developed pottery. The Pampas and Patagonia were dominated by the first group, while the second included tribes like the Charrúa, Minuane, and Guaraní. The third group, inhabiting regions such as the Quebrada de Humahuaca, adopted farming practices and pottery.

    There's no wrong way to be a woman. There are countless wrong ways to be a man. 
     
     
     
    James Breakwell should know. He's tried just about all of them. Journalism. Pig ownership. Felony lawn gnome theft. Whatever masculinity is supposed to be, this can't be it. But can you really fail at something no one can quite define? Apparently. 
     
     
     
    Now, in a series of funny, sharply observed, and occasionally poignant essays, everyone's favorite internet-famous father of four daughters lays down a lifetime of lessons in what it means to be a man. You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll wonder what really happened to those creepy lawn gnomes on that deserted country road. (Spoiler alert: They're right behind you.) 
     
     
     
    If you ever wanted to know how to fail at altruism, dodge the priesthood, and stumble your way into unexpected wisdom, this book is for you. 
     
     
     
    How to Be a Man (Whatever that Means) presents a vision of manhood that looks very different from what you'll see on TV. And that's a good thing. Probably.

    "Some dogs, like some people, just can't abide a quiet life," writes the author of the national bestseller, The Dog Who Came to Stay, in this warm and touching memoir. 
     
     
     
    Penny the basset shows up at the Borlands' Connecticut farmhouse on a cold, snowy day—head held high, tail wagging, as if she were a long-awaited guest. Hal and Barbara Borland were no strangers to strays. Pat, the rabbit hound thousands of people came to know in The Dog Who Came to Stay, had also appeared one winter, staying to become the family's dear companion. Now, Pat is gone, and Hal and Barbara are bereft without canine company. They fall in love with Penny—and she seems to fit right in. 
     
     
      
    Penny is a delightful dog—short-legged, flop-eared, full of fun and curiosity. And she loves people, so much so that she leaves the Borlands to go visiting elsewhere, often settling in with a different family for days on end. Indeed, Hal and Barbara admire her for her spirit of individuality and independence. 
     
     
      
    Though she never truly belonged to them, the Borlands agreed that Penny was a dog well worth loving—and so will listeners.
