As a pet parent this was the book I would have loved to read before I got my dachshunds. Not because I have had it all wrong all this time but because of the thorough and simple explanations w the lovely Hierarchy of dog needs guide. Step by step how to avoid and prevent many common dog owner headaches. To us their behavior sometimes is unwanted but for our dogs they are completely natural, and they don’t live in their own world but ours, humans. We need to take responsibility for that. My own dogs led me to the point where I’m now starting my own business in educating dog owners on positive reinforcement and clicker training. This book gives me so much for free! How to build a good and complete guide för pet parents to help them become best friends to their dogs. Although, in Sweden, some of the training gears mentioned in the book is illegal here, I know their not elsewhere and need to be addressed for what they are – not training tools but harmful equipment meant to use pain to change behavior. That’s not how we want to do it! We humans are better than that. We know better in our hearts. Love as a need for dog is so undisputable but still we don’t talk about how you love your dog. Linda does. So a well written, easy to understand even for one who has not English as a primary language. I love how all the references to research and science also often is true for us humans, as I work in human psychological care. Much Love for this book and its guidance! Well done Linda.
