Whiskers of Hope is a heartwarming story about a little kitten I rescued, but it goes beyond that. It introduces you to my new concept I’ve called the Defensive Individual Shield Hypothesis (DISH). Whiskers of Hope demonstrates how DISH was a game-changer for this kitten. But it's not just a book, it's an invitation to dive into how DISH might be impacting our own health. I give a sneak peek into the concept and show it in action through a simple case study. It's a great story to help convey how profound and yet simple DISH could be. From Back Cover: We like to believe we can control our lives, but sometimes things just get put in our path. Things we didn’t even know we really needed—like a little abandoned kitten. This Christmas kitty’s story is a journey into fate causing our lives to converge. This crossroad caused the transformation of a feeble creature’s health and the author’s mental toughness to share her discovery with the world. It is a true story of events which I have used to introduce my readers to this mystery body system (DISH) which I believe we all have. I believe the effectiveness of DISH (Defensive Individual Shield Hypothesis) determines whether a person has the opportunity to be well. Read this short memoir and see how my understanding of DISH was able to change the outcome of this kitten. May this memoir raise questions in you about the profound impact DISH could possibly have on the well-being of us all. Summary: As we follow this little cat’s journey, watch how understanding DISH quietly works magic that changes the feline’s outcome. In this particular real-life example of DISH, I share only the implementation process of a simple case study. DISH is a very easy concept, but implementing it can be quite difficult at times, due to the many factors involved. This book is intended as a quick example of how the process could look. The why it works and the more difficult scenarios are saved for a different book, Health Backwards: An Original Look from a Different Perspective. This book is not intended for medical advice. It is for informational purposes only.

My sister, Karen, and I loved our dogs; and there were many over the years. Karen and I were very close, and even though we moved away from each other as adults, we always kept in touch. At one time we talked about living together as old ladies and taking care of each other, just as we did when we were kids.But life had other ideas. Looking forward to seeing her daughter grow up and loving her anticipated grandchildren, at the young age of 41 Karen was swept out of our lives by cancer. This is a story of our life together and ultimately apart. A story of how I found meaning in her suffering and in my grief by working with therapy dogs for nearly 25 years. The wonderful world of therapy dog work opened my life and my heart in ways I could never have imagined. Working with children, in hospitals and nursing homes are a few of the areas I was gifted to work with my dogs. The book contains a reflection of God's presence as he walked with me on this journey. The people I walked with to learn this craft as well as those I walked alongside fills me with gratitude for God's grace. As I ponder that grace, I wonder what else God has in store for you and me.

It's up to a trio of adorable rescue huskies to make two lonely hearts in a coastal Alaskan town realize that true love is worth too much to turn tail and run. Glaciers have nothing on Kelsey Porter when she decides to freeze someone out. After getting burned once, she's not about to let it happen again. And right now all that icy contempt is focused on one annoyingly attractive and entitled interloper: Ian Roth. Not only is he looking to take advantage of her quaint, coastal community, tainting the small-town charm of Helen, Alaska, but he has committed the one crime she can never forgive--he doesn't like her dogs. Unlike what Kelsey believes, Ian loves Helen's charms as much as she does. That's partly why he's determined to open a brewery there, and he's not about to let anything or anyone stop his dream from coming true. But he didn't count on the beautiful, prickly woman getting under his skin. Or having to be within hand-biting proximity of her three huge huskies. When Kelsey's family conscripts her into helping Ian get his brewery off the ground, she finds herself caught between a rock and a hard . . . muscular . . . man who has a fear of dogs. But the longer they work together, the more she can feel herself begin to thaw. Now she'll have to choose: let sleeping dogs lie to protect her heart, or mush head-on toward love.

Jean Donaldson brings her considerable wisdom -- and wit -- to a wide variety of topics of interest to dog trainers and enthusiasts in this book from Dogwise Publishing. In 55 essays, Jean tackles issues ranging from the nature vs nurture debate, to the role of dominance in domestic dogs, to what are the most effective ways to train dogs. You will note a number of themes that flow throughout the book. Jean is a firm believer in conducting scientific research (verifiable results) rather than forming opinions based on gut feel or taking an anthropomorphic view of dog behavior. She also admits that we are flying blind on many issues because of a lack of research and tells the reader when that is the case. She looks at problem behaviors (problems for humans at least) from the perspective that both a dog's genes and environment impact behavior, and our ability to modify such behaviors is sometimes muddled since we don't always understand how genetics and environment interact. And finally, just what is a Dog Mom (or Dad) and how did that phenomenon develop and what is its genetic usefulness, if any, to both dogs and people?! Along with her other best selling books, Oh Behave! is destined to be a classic in the literature on dog behavior.
