"Ever since I could chase a bone, I've longed to talk...." The first talking-dog story in Western literature—from the writer generally acknowledged, alongside William Shakespeare, as the founding father of modern literature, no less? Indeed, The Dialogue of the Dogs features, in a condensed, powerful version, all the traits the author of Don Quixote is famous for: It's a picaresque rich in bawdy humor, social satire, and fantasy, and it uses story tactics that were innovative at the time, such as the philandering husband who, given syphilis by his wife, is hospitalized. Late one feverish night he overhears the hospital's guard dogs telling each other their life's story—a wickedly ironic tale within the tale within the tale, wherein the two virtuous canines find themselves victim, time and again, to deceitful, corrupt humanity. Here in a sparkling new translation, the parody of a Greek dialogue is so entertaining it belies the stunningly prescient sophistication of this novella—that it is a story about telling stories, and about creating a new way to discuss morality that isn't rooted in empiricism. In short, it's a masterful work that flies in the face of the forms and ethics of its time...and perhaps ours as well. The Art of The Novella Series Too short to be a novel, too long to be a short story, the novella is generally unrecognized by academics and publishers. Nonetheless, it is a form beloved and practiced by literature's greatest writers. In the Art Of The Novella series, Melville House celebrates this renegade art form and its practitioners with titles that are, in many instances, presented in book form for the first time.

The Dialogue of the Dogsis an inspired work of psychological observation by the master of the picaresque novel. In it, Cervantes displays all the clarity and warmth that marks the rich prose of Don Quixote.Given the gift of speech for a day, two dogs set about satirizing humans, their supposed superiors. In an exchange reminiscent of the ancient Greek Dialogues, they recount their experiences under their various masters. But whether butcher, constable, merchant, or gypsy, each is decried as corrupt to the core. Through the scathing Berganza and the critical Scipio, Cervantes delivers an ingenious critique of the morality of 16th-century Spain, and a timeless and telling portrayal of the heart of man. Author of the universally known Don Quixote,Miguel de Cervantes is Spain's greatest writer.

The large mastiff Berganza along with his mat-mate Cipión unexpectedly finds himself with the ability to speak. The two dogs have a lot to say and may have only one short night in which to say it, as it is unknown when this gift of speech might be taken away. Berganza's story is a long one, for he has had many owners and a tempestuous life both in the countryside and in town. And often enough Berganza will interrupt himself with many side-tales and much gossip; and then he tends to philosophize on it all until he is called back to his main purpose by friend Cipión, who, it turns out, is a bit of a gossip himself.--Publisher's description.

This book explains in plain and simple language the two reasons for bad, inappropriate, or uncooperative dog behavior.

Because the method addresses the underlying causes, it is simple, fast, foolproof and fun. This book teaches you how to use the basic obedience exercises (sit, down, stand, stay, come, heel) to build life-saving dialogue with your dog in minutes, without punishment. You will use this book as a step-by-step guide to the great relationship with your dog you may never have thought possible.
