The Wolf Pack Guide to Dog Training by Cat
The Wolf Pack Guide to Dog Training Keys to Owning a Well-Mannered Canine Shout out to my original much-loved (but not terribly well-mannered) human wolf pack who inspired the Wolf Pack Guide Book Series: Jenn, Morris, Alan, and Ben. Also to “The Werewolf”~ Love you all! Awwwwooooooooooooooooooo! Praise for The Wolf Pack Guide to Dog Training ~It is with great pleasure that I submit…our positive review of The Wolf Pack Guide to Dog Training: (It was) an enriching, positive bonding experience for our entire family of four (2 parents and two daughters ages 11 years & 13 years old) with our newly rescued German shepherd named ‘MAX.’ When we used Cat Spydell’s The Wolf Pack Guide to Dog Training techniques, (they were) simple (and) all our family quickly understood and implemented the techniques with astoundingly effective results. (The results were) especially notable given our dog was a newly rescued 3 ½ year old German shepherd. Our dog ‘MAX’ still positively responds when we use ‘wolf pack’ training techniques in new (or) previously encountered situations. We enthusiastically recommend using The Wolf Pack Guide to Dog Training for a simply positive and effective training experience! —Laura C. and family _________________________________ ~That (training advice) you shared with me from The Wolf Pack Guide to Dog Training is amazing!! I use it everywhere now! (Buddy is) already a more grateful dog! You are a genius!!!! —Susan D.

Tudors to Windsors: British Royal Portraits 16 March – 14 July
Tudors to Windsors: British Royal Portraits 16 March – 14 July Chris Levine, Queen Elizabeth II (Lightness of being), 2007 National Portrait Gallery, London • Founded in 1856, the National Portrait Gallery was the first gallery established exclusively for displaying portraiture. The Gallery’s collection includes a wide variety of works such as painting, sculpture, photography, prints and caricatures. Tudors to Windsors is the first time the NPG has toured their outstanding collection of royal portraiture. Bendigo Art Gallery has collaborated with the National Portrait Gallery on several occasions but this is by far the most extensive exhibition the NPG has ever sent to Australia and Bendigo Art Gallery is one of only two venues in the world, the other being Houston, Texas. The exhibition traces many of the major events in British history, examining the ways in which royal portraits were impacted by both the personalities of individual monarchs and wider historical change. The exhibition explores five royal dynasties, from the Tudors to the Windsors, and includes works by many of the most important artists to have worked in Britain. • Alongside the works of art from the National Portrait Gallery, Bendigo Art Gallery has secured some additional loans to further explain the lives of these fascinating characters. Special loans from the Royal Armouries and Historic Royal Palaces add a further dimension to this exhibition. 1483-1603 Above after Titian, Philip II, king of Spain 1555, oil on panel Right after Hans Holbein the younger King Henry VIII, c.1540s, oil on wood panel Art Gallery of South Australia, Adelaide • The Tudors are one of the most famous royal dynasties in the world.

YKC Spotlight on Art Dookie.Pdf
Spotlight on Art Dookie Dookie by Lucy Dawson Copyright: The Kennel Club Arts Foundation This lovely pastel is of the Welsh Corgi Dookie by Lucy Dawson. Dookie was very special as he was the first Corgi owned by King George VI, Her Majesty The Queen’s father. It was because of Dookie that the then Princess Elizabeth fell in love with the breed and has become one of the longest established breeders of Corgis. Dookie, whose Kennel Name was Rozavel Golden Eagle was bred by Thelma Gray in 1933 and as we know was the first in a long line of Royal Corgis. Dookie was chosen by His Majesty King George VI because he had a slightly longer tail than his litter mates. This appealed to the then Princess Elizabeth as she wanted him to have something to wag so that she would know if he was pleased or not. The artist is Lucy Dawson. She was particularly well known for her book illustrations and also produced a number of postcards under the pseudonym ‘Mac’. Many will recognise this as the name that appears on a lot of her work. She drew this portrait of Dookie at Royal Lodge, Windsor. Dookie by Lucy Dawson Your activity The artist has used pastels for this portrait as she did with most of her work. Have a closer look at it - what do you like about it? It’s a lovely memory of a first childhood pet. Perhaps you could draw a memory you have of when you first got your dog? Maybe it could be the first time they came home, or with the first toy you bought them? Have fun creating a lovely memory to keep!.

THOMAS, Communication Secretary, Victorian Conference THE ADVENTIST CHURCH and its image of "a family" and the expression, "It's a good family to belong to," were never more aptly illustrated than when the president of the General Conference, Pastor R. H. Pierson, visited Melbourne late in 1973. One of the first to greet him was Pastor J. B. Conley, who had worked with Pastor Pierson, when they were young missionaries in India. Others who renewed friendships, and asked concerning mutual friends who had left during the period prior to India's independence, were Mr. and Mrs. Stewart-Jacks of the East Prahran church (Pastor Pierson was their church pastor in Bombay), and Mr. and Mrs. C. M. Watson-Brown and their son, Stephen, and daughter-in-law, Chris- tine, of the Hughesdale church (Pastor Pierson baptized Brother and Sister Watson- Brown in Bombay). Their conversation was of the past, the present and the glorious future of the church in the hands of God. They parted with "Be faithful, be faithful." Pastor Pierson spoke at a combined meeting in the Camberwell Civic Centre, on the night of his arrival, and the following day met with all ministers, teachers, and their Co-labourers years ago in India meet again in wives before flying to Sydney.
