The Dachshund is not one dog but many. No other breed offers such a variety of colours, size and coat texture. He may weight 10 pounds or more than 30. As far as colour, the Dachshund comes in solid and mixed shades of red, cream, black, chocolate, fawn and grey-blue. He can be dappled or double dappled, brindled, or piebald. Coats can be smooth, long-haired or wired. Yet, magically, beneath this delightful multiplicity lurks a paradox. The Dachshund is not many dogs but one. Whatever the coat texture, colour or size, there is one spirit, one heart, and one soul. It is the spirit of courage, the heart of loyalty, and the soul of nobility.

Many secret habits of felines have previously been revealed, including their motivations for painting, the stuff they wear, and their laugh-out-loud language. But until now, no book has dared explore the shadowy world of armed-to-the-teeth kittens described and pictured in "From My Cold Dead Paws." Like strawberries and cream, hot dogs and baseball, apple pie and illegal fireworks, cats and guns make perfect partners. From Colt 45carrying calico and Glock-toting tabby to Uzi-brandishing Siamese and AKSU-flashing Siberian, this book presents the shocking intersection of America s love affairs with cuddly pets and purring guns. A photographic celebration of the independent nature of cats, "From My Cold Dead Paws" offers full descriptions of each breed and gun, including color, coat type, pattern, caliber, barrel length, and muzzle velocity. Adding to the readers' enjoyment is a dynamic, full-color design with guns, bullets, and targets firing all over the pages.
