Book Description
“People who love dogs often talk about a ‘lifetime’ dog. I’d heard the phrase a dozen times before I came to recognize its significance. Lifetime dogs are dogs we love in especially powerful, sometimes inexplicable ways.”–Jon Katz
In this gripping and deeply touching book, bestselling author Jon Katz tells the story of his lifetime dog, Orson: a beautiful border collie–intense, smart, crazy, and unforgettable.
From the moment Katz and Orson meet, when the dog springs from his traveling crate at Newark airport and panics the baggage claim area, their relationship is deep, stormy, and loving. At two years old, Katz’s new companion is a great herder of school buses, a scholar of refrigerators, but a dud at herding sheep. Everything Katz attempts– obedience training, herding instruction, a new name, acupuncture, herb and alternative therapies–helps a little but not enough, and not for long. “Like all border collies and many dogs,” Katz writes, “he needed work. I didn’t realize for some time I was the work Orson would find.”
While Katz is trying to help his dog, Orson is helping him, shepherding him toward a new life on a two-hundred-year-old hillside farm in upstate New York. There, aided by good neighbors and a tolerant wife, hip-deep in sheep, chickens, donkeys, and more dogs, the man and his canine companion explore meadows, woods, and even stars, wade through snow, bask by a roaring wood stove, and struggle to keep faith with each other. There, with deep love, each embraces his unfolding destiny.
A Good Dog is a book to savor. Just as Orson was the author’s lifetime dog, his story is a lifetime treasure–poignant, timeless, and powerful.

Frustrating, Hard to Understand.......2007-10-10
The first few pages were great - a story about an intelligent dog with a mind of its own, out chasing school buses, corralling skate-boarders and others, and protected by an owner who had bonded with him. Orson also learned to open the refrigerator, eat whatever he wanted, and then hide the packaging.
But Orson didn't fit in with urban N.J., leading its owner to buy a small farm in N.Y. and get over his own "mid-life" crisis. Unfortunately, Orson became less and less predictable, and more and more likely to nip at people. So Katz (owner and author) took Orson to the vet ($1,000 worth of tests with no result, then to an animal talker, and finally a shaman. Some improvement came from acupuncture (Orson had been hit by a car during his early days in N.J.), but the biggest improvement came when Katz bought an ATV to help his own mobility limitations due to injured legs.
Sadly, though, Orson again starts nipping, and even draws blood in instances when there was no known reason for him to. Katz, worried about his liability, decides to have Orson put to sleep.
So was Katz really bonded to Orson, or just decide he was a nuisance? Why didn't he put the dog away when people were around, and/or put up "Beware of the Dog" signs?
Definitely not the happy man-dog story I was looking forward to!
horrifying.......2007-10-08
When I was given this book, I had no idea what it was about. Once I learned, I was almost sick to my stomach. Incredible to me that someone could write a "dog love story" that ends in the cruelest, most heartless betrayal imaginable. There is no justifying his action. Simply appalling. Be warned this book is no sweet story, but a frightening tale of justification.
No pleasure read.......2007-10-07
First I must say that many reviewers were too harsh on Katz. The problem was that Katz made a name for himself writing about dogs on his Bedlam Farm and one of the protagonists pays with his life in this book. Readers were expecting another easy read about happy dogs in New York.
Katz is not a dog expert nor a dog trainer. He simply is a good writer who writes about his dogs and his farm. His temperament is better suited for more docile breeds like retrievers and Labradors. A border collie and Katz are just a volatile mix. Collies need constant work and attention and are by nature restless. They need a steady job, they need constant life around them to be happy dogs.
Katz is a good writer and this book reads well. What bothered me were the last 30 pages; after the dog is euthenized it seemed the book lingered when it should have ended with Orson's last heartbeat. He spent the remaining pages defending his position to put his dog down. After hollistic treatments, visits to a shaman and accupuncture, he never once took the dog to a certified dog behaviorist? That seemed odd, and that is why I had little compassion for Katz. Orson deserved more.
Katz is of the belief that dogs must be trained, must not be dangerous and should not be treated as humans. If a dog bites or attacks, its fate is doomed. Many urbanites will agree with that. Orson was one such doomed canine, although I don't understand why he couldn't find a home for him (despite his feelings that he can't "recycle" pets with behaviorial problems) when there surely could have been people willing to take the dog in? With all his fame and website there were no takers? He put the dog down without telling anyone but his own veterinarian, and now he has to pay with his decision and spend more time explaining his decision. Had he been a true lover of Orson, he could have easily found a home for Orson that didn't have the stimuli that triggered his biting attacks. He needed a female to tend to his spirit. Instead Orson was paired with an impatient, demanding, overweight middle-aged man.
This was my first book by Katz and it will be my last. He can write all he wants to about dogs but the image I have is of his "good dog" Orson dying in his arms. Orson was a good dog. It was the owner who was bad and failed him. I don't understand how Amazon could recommend this book along with the more upbeat "Marley and Me" by John Grogan.
A Good Dog: The Story of Orson, Who Changed My Life (Paperback) .......2007-09-24
I live on a small hobby farm. I have 5 dogs, 4 horses and 1 cat to care for. I get up at 5AM to feed, muck out stalls, and take my dogs for a walk before going to a 37 1/2 hours a week job 24 1/2 miles from my home.
I know how much physical labor it takes to do all the routine tasks, let alone mend fences, pay veterinary bills, etc. I find myself to be a bit unsympathic to a person like Jon Katz who hires help whenever he needs it and who also seems to get rid of any animal on his farm who is more than he can handle emotionally and physically. Why not try harder to work with the more recalcitrant animals instead of shipping them off to another place or euthanizing them? Mr. Katz is correct in saying that most misbehavior on the part of our companion animals is a reflection of the confusion we send to our animals through conflicting or incorrect non-verbal signals.
IT'S JON KATZ THAT SHOULD BE PUT DOWN.......2007-09-18
A few problems with Jon Katz:
1. Puts an ultimate price on how much the life of the dog he supposedly loves is worth. Wouldn't spend the money to see if there was a physical reason for the biting.
2. Expends energy on trying to make this dog into what he thinks he should be. When this fails, at the first sign of real trouble, abandons this dog he supposedly loves and has him killed.
3. Professes to support responsible dog ownership, yet lets Orson be around people without warning signs, without being on a leash, without being in a muzzle near other people. If a child had been bitten it would have been Katz's fault.
4. Uses his shaman as a way to excuse himself from killing Orson because Orson is now "at peace". Of course he's at peace, he's dead.
5. Only buys from breeders - doesn't even attempt to adopt dogs from rescue organizations. Buying from breeders when there are plenty of pure breds in shelters and specific breed rescue organizations is inexcusable and irresponsible. The equivalent number of dogs he "purchased" were killed in shelters from lack of homes.
6. Doesn't want dogs in his life to honor them as individual beings and individual companions. He wants them to serve specific purposes in his life for his needs. The moment he gives up on making Orson into what he thought he should be, he kills him.
7. This man is selfish, and truly emotionally unprepared to fully commit to another being. He should have learned a ton about commitment from Orson - that one escaped him.
8. Orson changed his life? He returned the favor big time. Death is a major life change.
I love books - I shredded this one. Couldn't stand the thought of anyone else reading it.

Book Description
Harried from recent changes in her life, the last thing Kristin von Kreisler needed was another dog. But when she came upon Bea, a scrawny beagle abandoned by the roadside, she couldn't turn her away. Bea became part of her family, and changed it forever.
Disheveled, malnourished, and terrified of human contact, for months Bea seemed damaged beyond repair. But gradually, she began to trust von Kreisler. After resisting her touch again and again, the dog one day leaned in and nuzzled von Kreisler's neck. From that moment, Bea began to give love as well as receive it. With the typically unforgettable personality of a beagle, over the next decade and a half she taught von Kreisler the value of living utterly in the present, of meeting each day with a good bark, of going on in life without being dragged down by past grief.
Written with rare eloquence and down-to-earth wit, this memoir of Bea and von Kreisler's 15-year love story will charm "beaglers" and touch the heart of anyone who's ever loved a dog. Bibliography.
Customer Reviews:
For Bea.......2007-07-22
This was a true story about a beagle that began her life in a research laboratory. I have adopted two such beagles and could relate to Bea's owner. The book is well written and very moving.
If you need to cheer up, or get some hope, this is the book.......2006-11-05
This book is so powerfully moving that every time I pick it up - I must have read parts of it and/or looked at the pictures dozens of times - I get weepy and feel so grateful that in this complicated world, there are still such wonderful examples of kindness and compassion. Bea will become your hero, your touchstone representing hope.
Miracles Do Happen!.......2006-09-22
If anything this story conveyed to me how there is another option for abused and rejected animals like Bea. There is the option of giving life to them. The option to not turn away from a hurting animal, because even they seek companionship, stability, and YES, even LOVE. I don't believe Bea would've ever made it past the age of five years if she wasn't found one dark night. She was a 'lab' dog and obviously very much abused. She was traumatized, but the author and her husband took the dog under their wings and after years of emotional rehabilitation, Bea learned to trust again and to enjoy her life.
It is a powerful thing to have the option of saving a life or letting a living thing die frightened, abused and alone. It is so easy to turn away and make excuses as to why you shouldn't reach out your hands to help them. But this book reminded me that we all have the power to give life just as much so as to ignore it. This book is just one precious example of a life saved. This book tells Bea's story.
Bea.......2006-08-15
'For Bea' isn't just for dog or beagle lovers (though I do like both) - but for anyone who has had an animal who was more family than pet.
It's an extremely easy and fast read. It is a little short on substance, but it gets to the heart of the matter quickly and stays on course for the most part.
Perfect for anyone considering a rescued dog.......2006-02-24
A great read that will make you laugh and cry. No other book prepared me for adopting a rescued pet like this one did. Many books on pet adoptions discuss dogs who are agressive or have volatile personalities. My dog was at the other end of the spectrum -- withdrawn, frightened, and extremely timid. This book helped me understand the long, slow process of building trust with my pet, and gave me hope that better days were ahead for both of us.

Customer Reviews:
Fresh, contemporary approach to traditional-look quilts.......2003-10-18
This is a marvellous book of -- unfortunately -- too few patterns. Japanese quiltmakers combine "new" traditional blocks such as baskets and log cabin with vintage-looking fabrics and somehow create really fresh-looking quilts. Cutting directions are a little clunky and pure applique would seem to be a lot simpler than some of the patchwork piecing that's shown. Nonetheless, some smaller versions of the quilts in the book are going to make it to my short list of projects to try.

If you can't stop crafting cute things, and your house is already full, the logical next step is to start sprinkling your creations throughout the garden. Good step-by-step instructions demonstrate a variety of country-style projects using paint, stamps, stencils, terra-cotta pots, and occasionally an existing structure like a fence or cement patio floor or piece of wooden furniture. Except for a very few items requiring basic woodworking skills, and perhaps a few necessitating a bit of decorative painting practice, most projects are easily accomplished by the novice crafter. --Amy Handy

Say the word "herbs" and most people think of cooking, but in Herbal Bouquets, author Emilie Tolley and photographer Chris Mead show that herbs and herbal flowers can be used for so much more. They begin with practical advice on selecting and gathering the best plants, offer tips on what plants have particularly nice flowers or foliage, and provide detailed descriptions of eight favorites. In addition to describing the basic attributes of the plants, Tolley offers interesting tidbits about each. The early Romans, for instance, believed that the juice of poppies could ease the pains of love; the roots and bark of the hydrangea plant have been used for centuries as a diuretic; and daylilies were originally cultivated by the Chinese for the delicate flavor they add to food.
The authors offer useful information on how to condition cut flowers to make them last as long as possible, how to dry flowers, how to choose the best container for a bouquet, and how to create stunning arrangements to brighten the home or commemorate special occasions such as weddings and holidays.
While much of what is in the book isn't new or groundbreaking, the authors do offer interesting ways to use herbs and herbal flowers in some unique craft projects. A dried flower bouquet, for instance, can be framed and enjoyed for years to come. A spray made with lavender oil makes a refreshing scent for linens. An exotically sweet rose petal jelly is a delicious spread on bread with butter or cream cheese. And a flower vase made of angelica stems makes an original centerpiece.
Mead's lovely photographs make the book a pleasure to look at, while the information contained within will convince readers that fresh herbs certainly have a place in our homes other than just the kitchen. --Robin Donovan

Book Description
The founders of the Wissenschaft des Judentums had a keen interest in Jewish erudition during the Renaissance, especially in Italy. Leopold Zunz, for example, regarded the work of Azaria de' Rossi as the point of departure for the historical-critical method upon which he based his "Science of Judaism". In the past two centuries, Jewish writings from the Renaissance have been edited and reinterpreted. In the areas of historiography, philosophy and Kabbala, we have important new findings from research conducted in recent years. For a short time now, scholars active in the field of Judaic studies in Germany have also been working in this area.
This volume presents the results of a conference of younger scholars organized in Wittenberg by the Leopold Zunz Centre for the Study of European Judaism. It includes papers on the Bible and its exegesis, the literature of biblical commentary, traditions of Kabbala in its Jewish and Christian forms, and history and historiography.
