The artist's primary process is a dynamic color transfer technique. In preparation for each of Tillie's works, her assistant assembles a touch-sensitive recording device by affixing pigment-coated vellum to a pre-cut piece of paper backed by mat board. The artist takes the prepared canvas in her mouth and brings it to her workspace. Working on the outside surface, she applies pressure with teeth and claws in a methodic ritual marked by dramatic shifts in tempo and intensity. The resultant sharp and sweeping intersecting lines are complemented by the artist's delicate paw prints and subtle tongue impressions, composing an expressionistic image that is revealed on the paper beneath when she is finished. She works with shocking intensity, sometimes to the point of destroying her creations. Her intense, instinctive scratch marks - mostly in red, blue, yellow and black - have drawn comparisons to abstract artists Jackson Pollock and Cy Twombly.

The juxtaposition and explanation of images as diverse as Greek pottery, Victorian jewelry, Assyrian sculpture, and Japanese netsuke, illuminates our understanding of the place of dogs in human society around the world. This book explores these cultural expressions and reflections of our deep and long-standing interest in dogs.

A diminutive, lovable demon, the Norfolk Terrier is counted among the smallest of the terrier breeds, yet his personality and appeal, compared to dogs of any size, are matchless. An ideal choice for a pet companion, the Norfolk Terrier possesses a personable disposition that is less quarrelsome than that of other terriers and a clean bill of health, marked by a hardy constitution. This is a loyal and intelligent dog, perfectly suited for an active life in the city or country and a wonderful playmate for children. This Special Limited Edition, written by terrier expert and author Muriel P. Lee, provides a concise account of the breed’s history in England and the United States. The author also discusses the breed’s characteristics and breed standard, outlining the traits that make the Norfolk such a unique terrier. Owners will welcome the chapters on puppy care, including the selection of the puppy, rearing and training the young dog, home safety and precautions as well as house-training and obedience lessons. This comprehensive owner’s guide covers the topics vital to caring for and keeping Norfolk Terriers, including feeding, exercise, grooming, healthcare and much more. The chapter discussing preventive healthcare, written by Dr. Lowell Ackerman, is lavishly illustrated and replete with up-to-date, accurate information on selecting a veterinarian, inoculations and infectious diseases, spaying/ neutering, parasite prevention and more.

The reason I felt compelled to write this book is because I guess I am a bit of a rebel in that I disagree with much of the practices I see from many other dog trainers. Having established that, I don’t claim to be the “know all and end all” of dog training. What I do believe is that if you follow the information that I am sharing, you should have the joy of a great relationship with your canine best friend.

Excerpt from The Boston Terrier, and All About It: A Practical, Scientific, and Up to Date Guide, to the Breeding of the American Dog The men composing the Boston Terrier Club, who framed this standard in 1900, were as thoughtful a body as could possibly be gotten together, and they carefully considered and de liberated over every point at issue, and in my estimation this standard is as near perfect as any can be. I was an interested participant in the discussion of the same, having in my mind's eye as models those two noted dogs owned by that wonderful judge of the breed, Mr. Alex. Goode, Champion Monte, and his illustrious sire, Buster. If one takes the pains to analyze the standard he will be impressed by the perfect co-relation of harmony of all parts of the dog, from the tip of his broad, even muzzle, to the end of his short screw tail. Nothing incongruous in its makeup presents itself, but a graceful, symmetrical style characterizes the dog, and I firmly believe that any change whatever would be a detriment.
