Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. A mostly good basic book for new dog guardians. The explanation of what to do when puppy has bad socialisation experiences is far too brief and neglects to mention some important points for successful rehabilitation. Contains a reference to dominance aggression that is incorrect and adds to the myth that dogs are intent upon dominating humans. Also perpetuates the myth that dogs want to please us, whereas dogs, like all creatures, do something because there's something in it for them. Disappointing to see the use of corrections with no mention of practical ways to prevent the problem in the first place. ( ) no reviews | add a review
