Book excerpt: Dogs in the North offers an interdisciplinary in-depth consideration of the multiple roles that dogs have played in the North.

Book excerpt: As ruggedly beautiful as the circumpolar north in which it evolved, the Canadian Inuit Dog has been a vital partner to the Arctic's indigenous people for millennia, helping them travel, navigate, hunt and survive in their frozen world. Deeply researched and passionately written, this deft and respectful exploration of this ancient landrace's history, genetics, form and function also chronicles the Inuit Dog's clashes with modernity, which threaten its existence more ominously than any Arctic blizzard.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1953, there were zero canine programs on any American police force. In 1989, there were more than 2,000 programs with over 7,000 police handler dog teams. In 1953, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police had the nation's only program with 20 teams but in 1989 there were 46 programs with 300 teams. These are dramatic program expansions. There have been controversial issues of using dogs; the pros and cons of using dogs for specialized functions are thoroughly analyzed in this book. Clearly identified are the elements to be assessed as a prelude to implementing a canine patrol unit, with the essential features critical to a unit's organization, operation, and ultimate success.
