This is a book that will not only help you train your dog but it will also help you to understand the way your dog perceives the world around him/her and why they might act like they do. I found it most beneficial to know why the dog was doing something rather than just knowing a way to correct it and nothing else. I haven't found an all inclusive book to training a dog since there are an infinite number of behaviors but this one covers quite a few and is useful from puppy, adult rescue and even the "old dog". Would without a doubt recommend to anyone that needs help.

Yes, I'll admit, I'm a dog lover and will be tempted by almost any title that pertains to the beasties. But this book appeals on several levels. It will delight and instruct many like myself, but it will also appeal to people who wonder about the psychology of human and canine interaction. It teaches amusing (and sometimes not so amusing) lessons to some of us who "misread" various animal responses as having any similarity to recognized human responses.
And Patricia McConnell is a good writer--compassionate, funny, and seriously committed to her values.

This book was great. Really helpful in understanding how and why your dog behaves the way s/he does. Also helpful in learning to deal with other animals you don't know well. I volunteer at my local animal shelter and found the information in this book extremely helpful in working with these animals- many of which are frightened by their new surroundings.

This is a wonderful book about dog and human communication, and why we do what we do. Of all of the dog books I have read, this has by far been my favorite. Patricia is a very entertaining writer and uses numerous stories and studies to explain her points. I think that this should be required reading for every dog owner.

This animal behaviorist/trainer presents solid information about how to enjoy your dog or dogs.
The ability to read their body language and know how they read yours, is priceless.
She tackles all subjects with love for the animals.
I have read other books similar to this but this one is the best. I plan to give one to each of my family and friends.
