Some dogs are friendly with other dogs, and some dogs are consistently aggressive or fearful, no matter the breed. In this fully illustrated guide, dog expert Jamie Shaw explains to readers the natural and learned instincts that form a dog's temperament and then teaches us how to apply the right kind of behavioral training methods to ensure a dog-friendly dog that you'll no longer have to be embarrassed by. Complete with instructional photos and chock-full of helpful step-by-step information, Shaw also shares case histories of specific dogs that transformed their dog-aggressive manners even when their owners thought all hope was lost. This is an easy-to-use handbook for those of us who want to keep our four-legged friends safe and happy in any social situation. Jamie Shaw founded The Dog School in 1987 when she saw a need for a new kind of dog training. The school uses the theory of animal learning to train and teach dogs to be very user-friendly for their owners. Shaw teaches dog to dog communication, agility, and obedience classes and also offers behavioral consultations.Shaw, Jamie is the author of 'Dog to Dog Communication The Right Way to Socialize Your Dog', published 2007 under ISBN 9781599210889 and ISBN 1599210886.
