I have the Barking Dog book from Bookup...Does anyone know the right =
first move for the very first one? I think I've tried almost everything =
legal, and never get a response.
Thanks.

You're very welcome. Turning on the engine for a moment will usually find a
mate in six or so for this puzzle.
This used to be our most common tech support question when this ebook came
out. :)

Next time, please post the position in Forsyth-Edwards Notation (FEN),
like this:
3r1r1k/pp5p/2p3pQ/1q2n3/4P3/2B5/PPP5/2KRR3 w - - 0 1
or ASCII, like this:
wKc1,Qh6,Bc3,Rd1,e1,Pa2,b2,c2,e4/bKh8,Qb5,Ne5,Rd8,f8,Pa7,b7,c6,g6,h7
..and if you post ASCII, please indicate which side has the move.
1.Rd7! (deflection) is mate in four. Black has nothing better than
1...Qxb2+?? in reply. In other words, resigns is strong for Black.
