{"product_id":"9781496229816","title":"From the Mouths of Dogs : What Our Pets Teach Us about Life, Death, and Being Human","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhat is it that dogs have done to earn the title of \"man's best friend\"? And more broadly, how have all of our furry, feathered, and four-legged brethren managed to enrich our lives? Why do we love them? What can we learn from them? And why is it so difficult to say good-bye? Join B.J. Hollars as he attempts to find out-beginning with an ancient dog cemetery in Ashkelon, Israel, and moving to the present day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHollars's firsthand reports recount a range of stories: the arduous existence of a shelter officer, a woman's relentless attempt to found a senior-dog adoption facility, a family's struggle to create a one-of-a-kind orthotic for its bulldog, and the particular bond between a blind woman and her Seeing Eye dog. The book culminates with Hollars's own cross-country journey to Hartsdale Pet Cemetery-the country's largest and oldest pet cemetery-to begin the long-overdue process of laying his own childhood dog to rest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThrough these stories, Hollars reveals much about our pets but even more about the humans who share their lives, providing a much-needed reminder that the world would be a better place if we took a few cues from man's best friends.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Nebraska Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52417112998199,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":118.92,"currency_code":"MYR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0962\/3548\/7543\/files\/9781496229816-1.jpg?v=1783211359","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.my\/products\/9781496229816","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Malaysia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
