Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Easily one of the most recognizable dogs in the world, Chihuahuas are easy to identify. If you ask someone what they think of Chihuahuas, you are almost certain to get a strong reaction either in favor of them or against them. They can be an incredibly polarizing breed. One thing that most people agree on about Chihuahuas is that they don’t appear to understand just how small they are. Most Chihuahuas don’t exhibit much (or any fear), going up and barking at a Great Dane or Mastiff. It’s impossible not to shake your head at their antics. This guide will walk you through the in's and out's of owning this phenomenal breed. Whether you're someone playing with the idea of getting a Chihuahua, or have already embarked on your journey with your pup, this guide will offer an insight into how to create a happy and fulfilling life for you and your Chi. This book will answer all your questions such as: Is a Chihuahua the right dog for me? I brought my Chihuahua home. What now? How can I best train my Chihuahua? What are some common mistakes should I avoid? They can be difficult to train, and their personalities tend to match their parents’ personalities. But with early socialization, they can make fantastic additions to any family. Topics covered in the book include: Mischievous Charmers – the Defining Characteristics Breed History and Characteristics The Ideal Home Finding Your Chihuahua Preparing for Your Puppy The First Week The First Month Housetraining Socialization and Experience Being a Puppy Parent Living with other dogs Training You Chihuahua Puppy Basic Commands Nutrition Grooming – Productive Bonding Basic Health Care Health Concerns Your Aging Chihuahua Given their small size, Chihuahuas are a surprisingly entertaining dog – largely because they don’t realize just how small they are. They tend to be wary of strangers, but when it comes to their family, they are one of the most loyal breeds. They love their families and want to protect them just as much as any large breed. Chihuahuas are not for everyone, but if you bring one into your home, you will have a dog that will love you unconditionally.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn to communicate with your dog—using their language “Good reading for dog lovers and an immensely useful manual for dog owners.”—The Washington Post An Applied Animal Behaviorist and dog trainer with more than twenty years’ experience, Dr. Patricia McConnell reveals a revolutionary new perspective on our relationship with dogs—sharing insights on how “man’s best friend” might interpret our behavior, as well as essential advice on how to interact with our four-legged friends in ways that bring out the best in them. After all, humans and dogs are two entirely different species, each shaped by its individual evolutionary heritage. Quite simply, humans are primates and dogs are canids (as are wolves, coyotes, and foxes). Since we each speak a different native tongue, a lot gets lost in the translation. This marvelous guide demonstrates how even the slightest changes in our voices and in the ways we stand can help dogs understand what we want. Inside you will discover: • How you can get your dog to come when called by acting less like a primate and more like a dog • Why the advice to “get dominance” over your dog can cause problems • Why “rough and tumble primate play” can lead to trouble—and how to play with your dog in ways that are fun and keep him out of mischief • How dogs and humans share personality types—and why most dogs want to live with benevolent leaders rather than “alpha wanna-bes!” Fascinating, insightful, and compelling, The Other End of the Leash is a book that strives to help you connect with your dog in a completely new way—so as to enrich that most rewarding of relationships.
