America's foremost authorities on dog care and training distill decades of experience in a comprehensive foundational guide for dog owners.

No matter what training method or techniques you use with your dog, the training is unlikely to be optimally successful unless it is predicated on an understanding of the dog's true nature. Dogs need food, water, exercise and play, rest, veterinary care - the basics. But since dogs naturally want to be led, they also need focused and compassionate guidance.

Through abundant stories and case studies, the authors reveal how canine nature manifests itself in various behaviors, some potentially disruptive to domestic accord, and show how in addressing these behaviors you can strengthen the bond with your dog as well as keep the peace.

The promise of this book is that, especially in an ever-accelerating world filled with digital distractions, you can learn from your dog's example how to live in the moment, thereby enriching your life immeasurably.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

It was very helpful and authors sound very kind and knowledgeable. They repeat the main ideas which is helpful to get main ideas across. Stories they use of personal experiences with dogs of all different types of breeds and situations is great too. Will most likely be listening to this again to help me really understand and practice having better pack leader skills for the benefit of me and my dog.

I love how this book takes you right in, and shows you the very nature of dogs, and the human & canine bond is an art. This book started out slow for me but once in a little further I couldn't wait to hear more. It is one of the best books I've ever heard/read.
