Dog Days : Dispatches from Bedlam Farm / Jon Katz. Doubleday large print home library ed. New York : Villard Books, 2007. 1 volume (large print) ; 22 cm. txt rdacontent n rdamedia nc rdacarrier The author of The dogs of Bedlam Farm continues his odyssey from suburban New Jersey dog lover to owner of Bedlam Farm in rural, upstate New York, profiling the four dogs, cows, donkeys, sheep, barn cat, chickens, and other animals who share his life, and capturing the experience of life with animals, the rhythm of daily chores, the pleasures of the country, and more. The squire of Bedlam Farm shares the unpredictable adventure of farm life. From little Jesus, the newborn donkey who becomes the farm mascot, to the sociable steer Elvis and his enormous sweetheart Luna, the creatures at Bedlam Farm find new ways to challenge Katz. Riding herd on the place is Rose, the workaholic border collie. Not even Rupert the ram can intimidate her. The sheep, the chickens and the cat all contribute to the hum (and occasional roar) of the place. So do the vet, the carpenter, and the animals' tender-hearted nursemaid. In spite of the aches and pains brought on by his demanding lifestyle and days when Bedlam Farm truly lives up to its name, the author is sustained in all he does by his wife, Paula. Through summer days and winter storms, he meditates on what animals can selflessly teach us.--From publisher description. 20180507. Katz, Jon. Bedlam Farm (West Hebron, N.Y) Anecdotes.
