A great dog-training book February 9, 2008 Marlene J. Waite 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book is one of the best on dog training and understanding canine behavior. It was recommended to me by a canine behavior expert and also by a trainer in the Whole Dog Journal.
Every dog owner should read this book January 5, 2008 JBG This book will give you great insight into your behavior and the behavior of your dog. It is the best book I have read so far on dog behavior in my search for training books for new dog owners like myself. It is not a training book, but it will make any training you do more effective because you will understand how human and dog communications/interactions differ and you will be able to better apply any training methods you use. I really do feel this book should be read by every dog owner. The insight and understanding you gain from reading this book are invaluable. Please do get and read this book.
The Other End of the Leash December 11, 2007 T. Beckman (Texas, USA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
The book presents some interesting concepts about life with your dog, Thought provoking at times. Presents a different view of dog ownership when establishing your position as the pack leader. While I found most of it enlightening I do have some differences of opinion on a few points.
The other end of the Leash November 30, 2007 Dog lover (South Africa) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
'The Other End of the Leash' is an informative, easy-to-read book. I own many, many books on dog behaviour and the only other book I would recommend, together with this one, is Jean Donaldson's 'The Culture Clash'. With these two books you'll know what you're doing!
Very informative November 25, 2007 Misfit (Tacoma WA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
By the time I came into my dog's life, I thought she was a lost cause. I tried all of the tricks I had seen my parents use when growing up, but her behaviors only seemed to get worse. The Other End of the Leash made me much more aware of why my dog was acting the way she was, and of the things I was doing to trigger her behaviors. She is a different dog than she was six months ago, she is a pleasure to take into public now. I have learned what to look for in her body language and how to instill confidence in her. This book is no longer on my personal shelf because I passed it on to a friend.
