4.0 out of 5 stars Good detailed survey, November 29, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Canine Behavior: A Guide for Veterinarians (Paperback)
I work with foster and shelter dogs and found this book to be interesting, helpful and thought-provoking. The author assumes the reader will understand more than single syllable words, and as such provides a level of insight deeper than found in more "popular" titles. On the other hand, aside from a couple of veterinary lapses into chemistry and physiology, you don't need a masters degree or medical training to be able to appreciate the content.

While I found several immediately usable tips (i.e. how to get a dog over the fear of thunder) the biggest value for me was as a foundation to provide better insight into what a dog may be thinking, why they may be reacting the way they do and alternative training approaches to try if traditional methods are failing.

This review is from: Canine Behavior: A Guide for Veterinarians (Paperback)
If your looking for anything on canine separation anxiety, this is not the book for you. It has a very limited amount of useful information However, if you are looking for the very basics of dog behavior such as barking, destructiveness, improper urination, etc.. this book may be helpful.
