This page is part of the Amazon associate programme. This page enables you to buy books over the internet from the large, reputable,"virtual" bookshop, called Amazon. Below are several books related to pets and animals that I have read and found interesting. If you wish to buy one of them, click on the link and you will be taken away from the Pet Gallery to the Amazon site to buy the book. On this site you can read about the bookshop and find the answers to some questions you may have about things such as the security of such purchases. Clicking the link on my site does not commit you to a purchase, it simply puts you in a position to buy the book if you wish to add it to your "basket" and then proceed to the page to pay for it. Please remember to use the "back" button of your browser to return to the Pet Gallery after visiting the book shop. Absent Friend: Coping with the loss of a treasured pet Martyn Lee, Laura Lee The loss of a loved pet is a very traumatic time. This book is written by two people who know what it is like to lose a pet who is a member of the family. It covers many issues, such as euthanasia (When is it time? How it is done? What happens?), disposal of the body, missing pets, memorials. It is heart rending to read but I found it very helpful to have read it when it came to the end of the lives of Sadie and Blaze, our dogs. Dog Dogs Elliott Erwitt Collection of many, many, black and white photographs of dogs taken over several decades and all over the world. Each picture captures the personality of the dog shown. The Dog Listener Jan Fennell Looks at domestic dog behaviour by making comparisons with how wolves behave in packs. Gives very sensible and (in my personal experience) very effective advice on how to deal with behaviour problems in a kind and natural way. Even if your dog does not have any behaviour problems it gives an interesting insight into why your dog behaves the way he/she does. How To Speak Dog: Mastering The Art of Dog-Human Communication Stanley Coren Not as daft as the title suggests. Ever wondered if your dog is really trying to kiss you when he licks your face? Find out what he/she really means by this and all sorts of other behaviour, gestures, and body language and even barks and other sounds. Search Dog Angela Locke Real life account of life with a Lake District search dog who gladly leaves his warm bed indoors with his owner to search for people missing in the hills. Delightful book that captures the enthusiasm that the dog has for the work. Pet gallery created by Dan Jeffery dan@jeffery2.demon.co.uk
