Bear Attacks, Dog Teams and a Sinking Boat by Mike Sloan Pdf

Life is full of experiences. These experiences can be useful windows in teaching us spiritual truths. Jesus taught this way. Often, He used physical examples to illustrate spiritual truths. These short devotionals use life experiences not only to connect the physical to the spiritual but to encourage the reader to finish the climb, the spiritual life journey that all Christians are on. It's similar to climbing a mountain. The goal is the summit. It's similar to a race on a track. The goal is to finish. There is a lot involved, a lot that happens between the start and the finish. This book includes the principles and methods learned in my journey. It includes problems to be aware of and common mistakes to avoid along the way. There are also certain methods that will be helpful for life. These are the result of 40 years of missionary and pastoral service. We are all on a journey. The journey has its ups and downs but there is a start and there is a finish. We want to finish well. My own life adventures and experiences have become illustrations with a message. A message that seeks to point us upwards and onwards in the life journey we are on. These 33 stories are wisdom lessons learned during my life of adventures from climbing, canoeing, guiding in Alaska, living in a remote village in Nepal, basically from 40 years of ministry. They are designed so readers can understand spiritual principles. The lessons are a great tool for group discussion or for the person who is busy and enjoys a short daily challenge using real experiences as a window into spiritual principles.

Mine and Tunnel Dog Training and Employment by U.S. Army Pdf

FM 7-41 Written near the end of the Vietnam War in 1973 field manual highlights the training and use of war dogs specifically as mine/booby trap detection dogs. Detailed methods, equipment, and training instruction specifics are covered in detail, from the Food-Reward method thru Basic Detection training and on to Intermediate/Advanced training in simulated field conditions. The ability to also detect tunnels and or weapons caches is also covered. As the Vietnam war heated up and more U.S. troops were pouring into the conflict in the late 1960's it became apparent that the Vietcong's use of mines and booby traps to maim and kill American soldiers remotely was becoming especially effective. The dog training techniques presented are both straightforward and simple to understand, using methods pioneered in the late 60's to counter the enemies use of mines and other guerilla warfare explosive device attacks. This manual is a wealth of information for any dog handler or trainer interested in dog training methodology and for insights into the special capabilities of detection dogs in general. It is a rare look into the use of Army dogs in the counter-insurgency fight in South-East Asia. Keywords: war dog,k9,detection,explosives,trip wire,booby trap,cache,scout,handler,german shepherd

Canine Cognition and the Human Bond by Jeffrey R. Stevens Pdf

Dogs are a valued part of millions of households worldwide. They also serve many functions in human societies from herding livestock to detecting drugs, explosives, or illegal wildlife to providing physical assistance or emotional support to those in need. Yet, in terms of behavior and cognition, dogs have only become a serious subject of scientific study in the last 20 years. Similarly, we have recently witnessed a sharp increase in studies of canine-human interaction, exploring the motivational, emotional, cognitive, physiological, and neural mechanisms of dogs on human psychology and well-being. This book is a collection of chapters stemming from the Nebraska Symposium on Motivation, which focused on Canine Cognition and the Human Bond. The primary goal of this symposium was to bring together researchers from psychology, biology, neuroscience, and anthropology to delve deeper into the canine-human bond. These chapters describe the current state of knowledge from international experts in the fields of canine cognition and canine-human interaction. Bridging these two areas can help us better understand the canine-human bond, potentially improving the lives of both dogs and people.
