In his quest to capture that bond that exists between dogs and their owners and distil it into the perfect shot, author-photographer David Darcy goes trans-Tasman, traversing the length and breadth of the North Island and the South Island of New Zealand. From Auckland to Wellington, taking in Tauranga and Rotorua on the way; from Nelson to Invercargill by way of Christchurch, Queenstown and Dunedin, here are the dogs of New Zealand and their owners. Along the way, he meets the working dogs, without whom the high country of the South Island could not be farmed successfully; the companion dogs who nurture their owner's sense of well-being and happiness; the family dogs who stick with their people through thick and thin; the police dogs and security dogs whose bravery is unwavering - there are stories that will make you laugh and cry. Set against the stunning backdrop of New Zealand's mountains, lakes, beaches and towns, delving into communities as diverse as Bluff and Auckland, David Darcy's skill as a photographer and a good listener reveals how passionately Kiwis feel about their dogs.

It's easier to be brave with a good dog by your side. Leslie Durant, owner of Pretty Paws, doesn't care that she's always giving all of her time and attention to others: it's worth the joy of helping abandoned animals find loving forever homes. But if she can't find a way to bring more money into the struggling shelter, the sacrifices she's made will all be for nothing. Then her brother leaves her with an inheritance, with two stipulations: she must work with her estranged mother to host a successful charity event and find a loving home for Peter's dog, Kiwi. But Leslie's not sure she can forgive the woman who cowered in a corner while Leslie's father hit her. Kiwi was severely abused before Peter adopted her. No matter where Leslie places Kiwi, the nervous cockapoo keeps showing up on her doorstep. She seems determined to stay with Leslie, no matter what. Even though Kiwi is terrified of everything, the sweet little dog makes Leslie feel braver. With Kiwi by her side, can Leslie save the shelter, face down the demons of her past, and take the risk of forgiving the mother who let her down when Leslie needed her most? The Kiwi To My Heart is the sixth and final book in the Soul Mutts series, heartwarming stories of lost dogs finding new homes with the humans they were born to heal.

Jones and has been published by Science & Technical Publishing Department of Conservation this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2006-01-01 with Aversive stimuli categories.

An experiment assessed the effectiveness of a procedure used by Department of Conservation (DOC) conservancies to train domestic dogs (Canis familiaris) to avoid kiwi (Apteryx spp.). That procedure involves fitting a dog with a collar that delivers a brief electric shock the moment the dog contacts either a stuffed kiwi or a kiwi carcass placed in an open field. Thirteen dogs representing a range of breeds, sex and ages were sourced from a local pound. Each dog was initially trained to approach a manufactured burrow while being alone and attached to a modified retractable lead, the handle of which was fixed to a pole adjacent to the burrow. Each then received test trials where food, a stuffed possum (Trichosurus vulpecula), rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus), ferret (Mustela furo), or kiwi was driven into view from within the burrow, and a carcass of that animal was presented immediately outside the burrow. Those 12 dogs that ate the food and contacted each stuffed animal or carcass then received the DOC procedure, but in a different site to that used for testing. When the test trials were repeated, only one dog (8%) behaved in a manner suggesting that the DOC training had been effective. This failure of most dogs to avoid the very stimuli that had been associated with electric shock logically precludes a dog's avoidance of live kiwi in their natural habitats. Possible reasons why the DOC procedure is unreliable are considered, as are alternative practical techniques for training kiwi avoidance, such as inducing illness in a dog after it ingests food that has a strong kiwi flavour and/or odour.
