 Good detailed survey November 29, 2000

I work with foster and shelter dogs and found this book to be interesting, helpful and thought-provoking. The author assumes the reader will understand more than single syllable words, and as such provides a level of insight deeper than found in more "popular" titles. On the other hand, aside from a couple of veterinary lapses into chemistry and physiology, you don't need a masters degree or medical training to be able to appreciate the content.While I found several immediately usable tips (i.e. how to get a dog over the fear of thunder) the biggest value for me was as a foundation to provide better insight into what a dog may be thinking, why they may be reacting the way they do and alternative training approaches to try if traditional methods are failing.

If your looking for anything on canine separation anxiety, this is not the book for you. It has a very limited amount of useful information However, if you are looking for the very basics of dog behavior such as barking, destructiveness, improper urination, etc.. this book may be helpful.
