In the twenty-seventh novel in Donna Leon's bestselling mystery series, a suspicious accident leads Commissario Guido Brunetti to uncover a longstanding scam with disturbing unintended consequences The memorable characters and Venetian drama that have long captivated Donna Leon's many readers are on full display in The Temptation of Forgiveness. Surprised, if not dismayed, to discover from his superior, Vice-Questore Patta, that leaks are emanating from the Questura, Commissario Guido Brunetti is surprised more consequentially by the appearance of a friend of his wife's, fearful that her son is using drugs and hopeful Brunetti can somehow intervene. When Tullio Gasparini, the woman's husband, is found unconscious and with a serious brain injury at the foot of a bridge in Venice after midnight, Brunetti is drawn to pursue a possible connection to the boy's behavior. But the truth, as Brunetti has experienced so often, is not straightforward. As the twenty-seventh novel unfolds in Donna Leon's exquisite chronicle of Venetian life in all its blissful and sordid aspects, Brunetti pursues several false and contradictory leads while growing ever more impressed by the intuition of his fellow Commissario, Claudia Griffoni, and by the endless resourcefulness and craftiness of Signorina Elettra, Patta's secretary and gate-keeper. Exasperated by the petty bureaucracy that constantly bedevils him and threatens to expose Signorina Elettra, Brunetti is steadied by the embrace of his own family and by his passion for the classics. This predilection leads him to read Sophocles' Antigone, and, in its light, consider the terrible consequences to which the actions of a tender heart can lead.Binding Type: Hardcover

Very durable
Style: Two pack
These are great for my aggressive chewer. She still naws them down a bit after 6 months but not nearly as much as other toys. The size is perfect. It keeps her engaged in play. They do not squeek which is a plus.
The only worry I have is if she throws it in the air it might break something breakable.

Great for a teething puppy
Size: Small, Color: Pink
This is one of the best training collars we have used. So good that we ordered a second one so each dog has one and we have recommended it to several other people. It has 3 options, beeping, vibration and shock. Each option has several different settings. The collar comes in many different colors. It is very sturdy and it is waterproof. It is adjustable and the clip is very sturdy. I had previously bought a different training collar that did not phase my dog in the slightest and was a complete waste of money. It always seemed to be low on battery even after charging, this one however lasts like a week after charging. I will continue to use this brand for sure

The Toy Annie Always Comes Back To
Size: X-Small, Color: Pink
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
These have become one of Annie's all-time favorite toys.
Annie is a tiny 4-pound dog, and she can be surprisingly picky about toys. She has a basket full of options, but she consistently comes back to her nubby Nylabones.
I think the size and texture are a big part of why she likes them so much. They're easy for her to carry around, chew on, and play with by herself. Whenever I buy a new one, it quickly becomes part of her regular toy rotation.
As a small-dog owner, I appreciate finding toys that are appropriately sized and actually get used instead of being ignored after a few days.
If you have a tiny dog who loves to chew, these are definitely worth trying. They've been a favorite in our house for a long time.

Dogs love these!
Size: Small, Color: Pink
My miniature Goldendoodle puppies love these! The only drawback is after several weeks of chewing, the bones develop pretty sharp edges long before the actual bone has been worn down. At that point, they are dangerous for the dog’s gums and must be thrown away.
