"Though the title may be a little perplexing, this is primarily an animal behavior book--and an animal behavior book par excellence...Dodman has spent years studying and treating dogs with behavioral problems...Dodman's treatments include many commonly accepted approaches, such as changes in diet, exercise, and environment, as well as obedience training, desensitization, and behavior-modification. But he also often prescribes human psychoactive drugs, such as Prozac and Valium...[and] has incorporated drug therapy into the treatment of a wide variety of canine behavior problems, such as extreme aggression..., fearfulness, panic attacks, eliminating in the house, or odd phobias like being afraid of garbage trucks or men in white beards. A well-organized, clearly written..., and useful resource for the owners of problem pooches."Dodman, Nicholas H. is the author of 'Dog Who Loved Too Much Tales, Treatments, and the Psychology of Dogs' with ISBN 9780553375268 and ISBN 0553375261.
