Through years of research on puppy brain development and intentional breeding practices, Kerry Nichols, the founder of Nicholberry Goldens, opens a whole new world of communication between you and your dog. Kerry has developed a system of raising dogs that actively stimulates her puppies' neurological systems, laying the foundation for emotional bounce back and creating connections in the brain that produce life-long problem solving skills. In this book, Kerry teaches you how to apply those principles at home with your dog. With guidance about every step of pet ownership, from bringing your new dog home to raising them through adolescence and old age, Puppy Brain uses the latest research to help you understand what your pet needs, and how to stop poor behaviors in their tracks. Humor abounds in this masterfully-bilingual twist on "The Three Billy Goats Gruff" that dares to ask the question: why is that troll so grumpy anyway? Three little cabritos have a clever plan to get past the grumpiest troll in the land. But then one of the billy goats wonders: Why is that gigante so grumpy, anyway? This thoughtful question sends their plan in a new direction, and the results are better than they ever imagined. Dashes of humor, empathy, and kindness make this modern twist on a classic tale a charming delight. ☀️Summer Reading Program Survey ☀️ Calling all Georgia Public Library summer readers! 🚀 We're soaring through our Summer Reading Program, and we need your help to keep the adventure going!
