Let Dogs Be Dogs - Understanding Canine Nature and Mastering the Art of Living with Your Dog - book

Regular price $29.00 Sale

In collaboration with our friend and colleague, Marc Goldberg, we offer decades of experience in dog care and training in a new comprehensive guide for dog owners. 

No matter what training techniques you use with your dog, the training is unlikely to be optimally successful unless it is predicated on an understanding of the dog's true nature. Since dogs naturally want to be led, they need focused and compassionate guidance.
Through stories and case studies, we reveal how canine nature manifests itself in various behaviors, some potentially disruptive to domestic accord, and show how in addressing these behaviors you can strengthen the bond with your dog as well as keep the peace.
The promise of this book is that, especially in an ever-accelerating world filled with digital distractions, you can learn from your dog's example how to live in the moment, thereby enriching your life immeasurably.
