Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly
Tellington-Jones, an animal handler, here collaborates with Taylor ( The Last Run ) to explain the "TTouch"sic as a simple therapeutic animal-handling technique--"You make circles holding your fingertips, your fingers, or your hand in various positions using varying pressures"--that produces diverse results. To judge from the author's work since 1976 with assorted species (cats, dogs, horses, farm animals, exotics, even reptiles), the TTouch can dramatically alter animal behavior and "problem" personalities, speed up healing, alleviate pain, relieve tension and allow the animal and its keeper to work as a sensitive, cooperative team. Used in conjunction with positive "visualization" and techniques for mind-body realignment meant to change keepers' attitudes toward themselves as well as animals, the TTouch appears to engage not only practical but mystical bodywork, encouraging more intuitive communication between animals and humans. Tellington-Jones stresses that animals are not "lesser" creatures fit for domination; rather, they are complex emotional beings with whom we can live with mutual trust and pleasure. Entertaining and often moving, the manual may well inspire many to try the technique. Illustrations not seen by PW.

5.0 out of 5 stars this book is a must if you really love your pets,, June 21, 1998
By A Customer
This books content is out of this world, taking you further than any book i have ever read. I could not put it down from start to end. One of the questions i often ask myself is does my dog really know just how much i love him. After reading lindas book and trying the ttouch i got my answer. Yes he does and the feeling is returned ten fold. Thankyou linda

4.0 out of 5 stars A great method for working with animals, September 10, 1999
By A Customer
I have applied the methods in this book to various cats at a homeless cat shelter. It is a lot of fun and the cats really like it too. The book has many fascinating stories of how Tellington developed her methods and how she has applied them to an incredible range of animal species.

2.0 out of 5 stars Great ideas but totally inadequate instruction, February 5, 2007
By Michael McKee "mystic cowboy" (Port Townsend, WA United States) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
As a sales pitch for Tellington Touch, this book is great. As an instruction manual, it is totally worthless. Complex gestures such as those mentioned in the book need illustrations that take one step-by-step through the manipulation process. There aren't any, just a few photos that show one stop action part of the whole.

It did get me to take a T-Touch workshop, which was beneficial for my old and arthritic dog. The process works. The book doesn't.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent and Exciting to read!
I so enjoyed this book! It is well written and once you start reading it you get jazzed and don't want to quit reading it or put it down. Keep an open mind when reading it. :)
