In this stress-free guide you will learn how to: Choose the right puppy for your lifestyle, including the benefits of a rescue dog Introduce them to the family, other pets and children Tackle separation anxiety Train your puppy, while building understanding and trust Socialise them, so they grow into a happy, well-adjusted dog Prevent behavioural problems later in life I love working with puppies because there is so much potential to make a lasting difference to a dog's life and to their owner's.

Om vinteren bliver fuglene mere synlige – bl.a. fordi der ikke er blade på træerne – og de kommer tættere på os for at lede efter mad i haverne, så man kan iagttage dem fra vinduet. Kunstneren og ornitologen Lars Jonsson har skabt en smuk og meget personlig fuglebog, der både rummer kulturhistorie og personlige iagttagelser samt overvejelser om at male og tegne fugle, om deres farver og deres adfærd. I bogen skildres 60 almindelige arter i tekst og billeder – både hurtige skitser, akvareller og detaljerede malerier. Lars Jonsson (f.1952) er en af verdens mest betydningsfulde fuglemalere og fuglekendere. Han har skrevet og illustreret en lang række bøger og har udstillet i både USA og Europa. Hans separatudstilling "Mellem Himmel og Jord" (2008) med oliemalerier og akvareller blev vist flere steder i Danmark – bl.a. på Kastrupgård.
