fantastic, a little hard going as 1st - Rated
This book was recomended to me by a receptionist at my local vets with the warning, it's a little hard going at first but really good. After reading it I agree. It's actually a simple book but as a new dog owner who knew nothing about the technical side of dog behaviour, it's a good 1st read. It seems really hard to get into until you think about it, but it tells you common sense ways to control your dog. Until then i'd never thought what I was doing would effect how my dog related to me and behaved. Once you get past the 1st few pages and start to understand where they are coming from it's a fantastic read. I found it really helpfull as a stepping stone to much more technical books, and beginning a behaviourist qualification. Maybe I wouldn't have considered it without this book. If you've bought a book thats too technical, read this first, it's a simple way of getting into the world of the dogs brain and how he relates to what we do.
