Written by experienced author and dog owner Vanessa Richie, The Complete Guide to the Shiba Inu is an excellent overview of this beautiful breed and contains information, tips, and advice from some of the top Shiba breeders in the world. Don’t let their adorable appearance fool you though – they will certainly use it to their advantage if you let them. Notorious escape artists and unapologetic alpha canines, a Shiba Inu can quickly learn to dominate your home if you aren’t ready to lay down the law from day one. Be prepared to tackle the challenge of owning a Shiba Inu by reading about: Finding Your Shiba Inu Preparing your Family and House Shina Health and Wellness Bringing your Shiba Inu Home The Multipet Household Housetraining Shiba Socialization Training your Shiba Inu Nutrition Grooming — Productive Bonding Genetic Health Concerns Common to Shiba Inu The Aging Shiba Inu The Shiba Inu was made a Japanese national treasure during the 1930s, and for very good reasons. With a fox like appearance, this breed is also the most easily recognizable of the six dog breeds indigenous to Japan. These adorable little dogs are full of energy and intellect that will keep you both entertained and on your toes. When it comes to people, Shiba Inu are incredibly affectionate and charming, but don’t expect that to translate into easy training. They can be quite headstrong if you don’t take a firm and consistent approach to training them. They can also be very vocal, so you will need to plan to train a puppy to be quiet. They have an average life expectancy of between 12 and 16 years, so bringing one of these little guys into your home is likely to give you a long-term companion that can entertain you, and may demand a bit of entertainment in return. It is hard to imagine that these sturdy, affectionate dogs were once on the brink of extinction. Over the last 60 years, they have become an extremely popular breed because of the combination of easy-care, adorable appearance, and charming personality.

Facing the twilight of her career, British supermodel Julia Westgate battles solitude and hidden desires. All she wants from her secret weekend in Boston is to forget her life, and all its emptiness, in the arms of an anonymous woman who will give her what she so desperately craves—but who won’t ask any questions. Cory Hayes is young, eager, and completely oblivious to who Julia Westgate might be. Completely smitten from the moment she lays eyes on Julia, Cory is more than happy to give Julia what she wants. At least that’s what Cory tells herself. But neither woman counts on a glorious weekend that ends far too soon. And then Cory wakes up to an empty pillow beside her, with no idea who she spent the weekend with and not a clue about how to find her. Originally published by Naiad Press, Bella Books is proud to reissue this updated version of Change of Heart.

NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY KIRKUS REVIEWS From the acclaimed author of Letter to My Daughter comes an engrossing coming-of-age tale that deftly conveys the hopes and heartaches of adolescence and the unfulfilled dreams that divide a family, played out against the backdrop of a small southern town in 1973. For his fourteenth birthday, Alan Broussard, Jr., receives a telescope from his father, a science teacher at the local high school who’s eagerly awaiting what he promises will be the astronomical event of the century: the coming of Comet Kohoutek. For Alan Broussard, Sr.—frustrated in his job, remote from his family—the comet is a connection to his past and a bridge to his son, with whom he’s eager to share his love for the stars. But the only heavenly body Junior has any interest in is his captivating new neighbor and classmate, Gabriella Martello, whose bedroom sits within eyeshot of his telescope’s lens. Meanwhile, his mother, Lydia, sees the comet—and her husband’s obsession with it—as one more thing that keeps her from the bigger, brighter life she once imagined for herself far from the swampy environs of Terrebonne, Louisiana. With Kohoutek drawing ever closer, the family begins to crumble under the weight of expectations, until a startling turn of events will leave both father and son much less certain about the laws that govern their universe. Illuminating and unforgettable, The Night of the Comet is a novel about the perils of growing up, the longing for connection, and the idea that love and redemption can be found among the stars. Praise for The Night of the Comet “A quiet, occasionally bittersweet novel about the differences between desire and disappointment, expectations and reality.”—Booklist “Coming-of-age novels examine youthful revelations about the world—filled with cynicism and wonder and rearranged expectations—and the quality hinges on the honesty of the voice, the truth of the observations, the handling of innocence lost; Bishop succeeds on all these fronts.”—Kirkus Reviews “Resonant . . . explores the complexities of a father-son relationship through science, astronomy, and the growing pains of adolescence. . . . Bishop’s characterizations of young Alan’s mother, father, and sister Megan are endearing and their relentless coddling of their maturing son is wincingly accurate.”—Publishers Weekly “Hilarious and heart-wrenching, ethereal and earthy, The Night of the Comet points us to the fragile universe of dreams and disappointments, joy and tragedy, saying here it is, all of it: feast your eyes on the magic. It’s a heavenly book. Nobody writes about the gravitational pull of parent-child relationships—all that we yearn for and all that we can’t have—like George Bishop.”—Minrose Gwin, author of The Queen of Palmyra “Equally sweet and sad, this is a fine novel of love and forgiveness.”—Stewart O’Nan, author of Snow Angels “Bishop’s one of our best, and this book’s a quiet marvel.”—Josh Russell, author of Yellow Jack “A deft, clear-eyed, and sensitive examination of the mysterious bonds of family, the allure of the unattainable, and love and desire—and their consequences—in all their many forms.”—Ellen Baker, author of I Gave My Heart to Know This

The Complete Guide to the Shih-Poo is a comprehensive guide that will help new owners navigate the in’s and out’s of owning this unique and wonderful cross-breed. Be prepared for everything you’ll encounter throughout your Shih-Poo’s life, from their first car ride home all the way until their senior years. We cover topics such as: Which training methods are most effective for my Shih-Poo? How do I select the right Shih-Poo breeder or rescue? What do I need to do to puppy-proof my home? Easily one of the most endearing dogs around, the Shih-Poo is a mix of the ancient, adorable Shih Tzu and the popular, friendly Toy Poodle. One look at this charming little dog, and you’ll understand why it is called a “teddy bear dog.” The combination of the two small breeds results in a friendly, loyal little pup that is just as happy doing tricks as he is cuddling up with you while you watch TV. The Complete Guide to the Shih-Poo covers all of the information essential to owning a Shih-Poo, including: The history of the Shih-Poo Shih-Poo Temperament and Personality Rescuing a Shih-Poo Preparing your home for a small dog The costs of owning a Shih-Poo House-training your Shih-Poo Shih-Poos in the multi-pet household The most effective training methods for your Shih-Poo Tips for traveling with your sweet Shih-Poo Proper grooming techniques for the Shih-Poo coat Shih-Poo-specific health and wellness information for all stages Shih-Poos definitely have plenty of energy, but they are so small, that you can easily work off that energy without having to tire yourself out. Their size does mean they aren’t a great breed to choose if you are looking for a dog to take on a long jog, and they will be happy to go hiking, camping, or just spending time exploring outside. Despite their appearance, they are a sturdy breed. However, you will still need to monitor younger children interacting with them to make sure the kids are careful, but they are a good fit for every kind of family. Odds are good that your dog is going to be an intelligent dog that could get bored easily. This means that you need to not only make sure you help your Shih-Poo gets enough exercise, but that he also gets adequate mental stimulation. As long as you are firm and consistent – and don’t allow him to get away with anything because of that adorable look – a Shih-Poo can do a lot more than just the basics. If you want a dog that can do a whole series of tricks, the Shih-Poo fits the bill. Grooming can take a bit of time because a Shih-Poo requires regular bathing and brushing. Fortunately, given its small stature, this won’t be terribly time consuming. The face and ears require additional attention to keep them clean and stain free. Although the Shih-Poo is a designer breed (meaning they are too new to have a standard), the average lifespan is between 10 and 15 years. If you want an adorable, relatively easy-going dog, the Shih-Poo could be a perfect solution for your home.
