At last a book on dog behaviour that is down to earth and about the real dogs in our lives. In her customary conversational style, the author liberates the reader from jargon and received wisdom, fearlessly challenging outdated science and misunderstandings that have become accepted as facts. Jackie Drakeford explains in detail what is happening in the dog's mind when it produces unwanted behaviour, and how to work with each dog in such a way that it becomes a willing ally. The author allows dogs to be individuals, scotching the idea that one size fits all when training, and instead showing the reader how to identify what motivates each type of dog.
