Produktinformationen zu „Understanding Your Dog For Dummies (ePub)“
If you're feeling overwhelmed by the prospect of getting a
dog or nervous about caring for the one you've already
brought home, now you can relax. Understanding Your Dog for
Dummies helps you recognize not only why your dog behaves the
way she does, but in a way that enables you to parlay that into a
well-behaved companion who listens (and sits, and speaks, and
comes, etc.).
Whether your pooch is a mixed breed or purebred, she has a
distinct identity that makes her unique. The first step in
understanding your dog is to respect the honorable task she was
originally bred for and to identify how these inbred impulses
influence her personality and behavior. In essence, you need to
speak her language if you expect her to learn to understand
yours.
Understanding Your Dog for Dummies gives you everything
you need to learn to understand your pooch's unique dialect
of "Doglish"--and shows you how to take on the
role as pack leader to give your dog the cues, guidance, and
consistency she needs to shape and develop good behaviors. Inside
you'll discover how to:
* Read your dog's body language
* Communicate with your dog
* Interpret your dog's breed-specific traits
* Correct dog-behavior-gone-bad
* Counter anxiety-based behavior
* Understand and resolve aggressive behavior
* And so much more!
Think of this book as Doglish 101--a prerequisite for every
human member of your dog's family. Now, let the training
begin!

Autoren-Porträt von Stanley Coren, Sarah Hodgson
Stanley Coren is best known to the public for his popularbooks on dogs and on general psychological issues. However, within
the scientific world, he's also a highly respected scientist,
a Professor of Psychology at the University of British Columbia,
and a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada.
His engaging writing style and his broad knowledge about the
behavior of dogs and people have made his books The Intelligence
of Dogs, Why We Love the Dogs We Do, What Do Dogs Know?, How
to Speak Dog, The Pawprints of History, How Dogs Think, Why Do Dogs
Have Wet Noses?, and Why Does My Dog Do That? all
bestsellers.
Roger Caras, President of the ASPCA, and himself a bestselling
author of dog books, noted "Stanley Coren has an incredible
gift -- the ability to take the most complex matters and make
it all seem so simple and clear." Perhaps this is why Coren
was named Writer of the Year by the International Positive Dog
Training Association and is a sought-after contributor to a number
of national dog and pet magazines, including Pets Magazine,
Modern Dog, AnimalSense, Dog and Puppy Basics, and AKC
Gazette.
Many professional associations have recognized Coren's
work with service dogs, and he's received awards from several
major police dog organizations, including the California Canine
Narcotic Dog Association and the British Columbia Police Canine
Association. His work with and knowledge of dogs has often caught
the attention of the media, and he's been the subject of
feature articles in People Magazine, USA Today, Time Magazine,
Maclean's, US News & World Report, New York Times, Los
Angeles Times, San Francisco Chronicle, Washington Post, and
others. His affable manner has also made him a popular guest with
the broadcast media, and he's been featured on numerous
television programs, including Oprah, Larry King Live, Dateline,
20/20, Maurie Povich, Good Morning America, Charlie Rose, and
the Today Show. He currently hosts the national TV
