It helps get into the dogs brain and now training makes sense! I am not ready to take over for the Dog Whisperer, but I understand a lot more about my dog's behavior. If you want to make dog ownership even more satisfying, you should have this book on your shelf. You should probably order several so you can give them to your dog owner friends!
