What’s the truth about beagles? Are they all nose and no brain? No way! A beagle certainly has a powerful nose to work with—it has 220 million scent-receptors compared to the human’s puny 5 million. But there’s a lot more to beagles than the nose. And you won’t have any doubts once you’ve met Trouble. This member of the USDA’s Beagle Brigade works at Miami’s airport, sniffing out banned meats, fruit, and other plant items. During five years on the job, Trouble has found over 1,800 banned food items! Beagle: A Howling Good Time is a narrative treat for dog lovers that includes amazing, real-life stories about these little pups while also recounting the breed’s history and its relationship to the animal’s physical characteristics, personality, and suitability as a pet.

Discusses the social behaviors of wolves and how this makes them great problem solvers, as proven by Dr. Frank''s experiments on their intelligence versus that of dogs.

Cairn terriers are small—but their fun personalities can easily fill up the big screen! Right off the bat, readers will meet Terry, the little cairn terrier who played Toto in the 1939 classic movie The Wizard of Oz. Toto became one of Hollywood’s most famous dogs because of the loyalty, courage, and intelligence that Terry showed on screen—traits that any cairn terrier owner would instantly recognize. Where did these qualities come from? Perhaps they can be traced back to the cairn terrier’s ancestors, who worked on farms in the Highlands of Scotland hundreds of years ago. These working dogs were bred for loyalty, intelligence, and bravery so they could help farmers hunt down farm pests like rats and weasels. A narrative treat for dog lovers, Cairn Terrier: Hero of Oz covers the breed’s history and its relationship to the animal’s current size, physical and mental characteristics, and suitability as a pet.
