Book Description
Looking for some tips to create a little order out of the canine chaos in your home? Concerned that there might be some tension between two of the dogs in your pack? Not sure if all that growling during play means trouble or not? This booklet has the answers to those questions and many more. Written to help you maximize the joy of living in a multi-dog household, it emphasizes the use of Ethology and Positive Reinforcement to teach your dogs to be polite and patient instead of demanding and pushy. Filled with practical ideas about keeping life fun in houses that have two dogs or many more than that, Feeling Outnumbered is a great resource for all multiple dog owners, whether novice of professional.
About the Author
Karen B. London, Ph.D. After graduating from UCLA with a biology degree, Dr. Karen London received her doctorate in Zoology from the University of Wisconsin, where she studied aggression and the interactions between species that live together. For her dissertation, she researched tropical social wasps in Venezuela, Mexico, and Cost Rica and has enjoyed the switch from wasps to dogs as they are easier to work with and less aggressive. Dr. London began volunteering at Dog's Best Friend, Ltd. in 1997, and became a full time Applied Animal Behaviorist and Trainer there in 1999. In between, she spent a year in New Hampshire teaching play training classes, supervising doggy day care, and grooming dogs. Dr. London does private consultations for dogs with behavioral problems, specializing in canine aggression and play. She also teaches training classes, writes about dog training and behavior, and gives speeches. She and her husband Rich live with their dog Bugsy, who is half Black Lab and half handsome stranger.
