History of the dog – History of the Dog
Pull on the leash Pee on the kitchen floor Bark all the time in the garden at neighbours, birds, anything that moves Show any road sense Chase other dogs or animals Growl or bare their teeth unless sensing danger Chew chair legs when bored Bark when left alone in the house Disobey you when they feel like it Show aggression towards people Dig holes in the garden Steal food from the table
We have owned a number of dogs over the years mostly mid-sized to large breeds, Labradors to Irish Wolfhounds.
The Labradors were mostly ok, fun-loving and happy, a little wayward at times, but relatively easy to cope with given duidance and kindly discipline. Maybe we were just lucky, and do I know people who haven’t been so lucky!
Wolfhounds as a breed are even-tempered, patient, loyal and fearless, they may seem aloof and indifferent at times, but they love being with people, but because of their size and power they need firm but kind control. That is not to say only big powerful dogs need "educating", but all dogs do if we are to live in harmony.
We were in business when we bought our first Wolfhound. One of our employees was a teenager, he had been raised on a farm so was familiar with animals. He loved all animals and was very taken with the dog and he insisted on taking him for a walk, which he did daily, rain or shine.
The business we ran was in town, a short walk from the beach, but the roads between were very busy with traffic. Every day Fred would walk the dog to the beach and let him off the leash to exercise.
One day Fred came back without the dog. The dog would have been about two years old by this time, just approaching his full size and maturity. Between floods of tears Fred explained he had taken the dog to the beach and let him off the leash, but when it was time to come back the dog refused to come to him. Of course this ended up with Fred chasing the dog all over the beach, hilarious for everyone watching, exhausting for Fred, great fun for the dog.
Fred didn’t know what to do so he set off back to tell us the tale. The dog followed him back, but on the other side of the road about 100 yards behind. Imagine the scene, a distressed Fred on one side of the road and a hairy dog the size of a pony on the other. The dog taking his time enjoying his freedom. All this to the amusement of a captivated audience of bemused shoppers. About 30 minutes after Fred returned the dog trotted in nonchalantly, a picture of wide-eyed innocence, couldn’t understand what all the fuss was about and appeared to have a huge grin on his face.
On another occasion the dog managed to get out of the gate. The local milkman, a man of…
Digital Products
In today?s world where just about everyone has access to the internet, one of the biggest new sales opportunities is in digital products. Digital products can be anything from e-books to video games or even audio books or movies. Anything which can be purchased and downloaded on the internet can be a digital product. There are many advantages to selling digital products but the biggest one is the vast audience to whom you can sell to.
For most traditional business, even in the biggest cities in the world, the number of people who may walk into their store on a given day is very limited by the fact that only a set number of people can fit in a store and there are only so many people within a few miles which can come in. When selling digital products your store front is as big as the internet and people can purchase from around the world. This means that, with proper marketing, you can have hundreds of thousands of visitors (or even more!) viewing your products every day.
With these huge number of people viewing the digital products it is easier to make a big profit even if a smaller percent of the people who view the product actually convert to sales. The trick to selling digital products to sell is to find something which solves the problems people have. That could be anything from them wanting to listen to specific songs to wanting to learn how to train their dog online with an e-book or series of videos.
Digital products are loved by many people because there is no need to wait for shipping or go out of the house to buy a product. They can download the product as soon as the purchase is complete and begin enjoying it. One of the most popular types of digital products today are e-books. There are, of course, mainstream books which are available to read online or on an e-reader device but there are also many e-books which are designed to solve problems.
These informational products are often written by experts in specific fields because they not only want to make some extra money online, but also because they wish to share their knowledge with others. This is an excellent way to increase income for many people because selling their knowledge to other people online is not going be competing with any local business they might have. This is a very effective method for growing a business which may otherwise be limited by a geographic area.
Anyone interested in selling digital products should focus on either creating their own product based on a topic which they are very familiar with or else choosing a product made by someone else and promoting it for a portion of the sales. This is called affiliate marketing and is a very common form of promoting digital products. Whatever you choose to sell it is important to know all you can about your digital product to ensure you can provide excellent support and be seen as an expert in the field.
