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.

Download or read book Oscar written by David Lees and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-04-10 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oscar: The Friendly Rottweiler, is a narrative recounting the life's journey between David and his dog, Oscar, AKA, the "Big O" and the "Gentle Giant." During his very special life, which lasted nearly fourteen years, and is a near record for Rottweilers, Oscar weaved himself into the fabric of David's life, breaking all the barriers and stigmas attached to his breed. From just a mischievous pup he first met at the breeders, to becoming the best friend he ever had, his journey with Oscar was a soul searching, truth finding mission, that he never knew he was on, until the very end, when it hit him all at once. Yet, this is not just the true story of a journey in life between David and Oscar, it is also a record of the life of a dog that will, quite literally, change the perception of a breed. It is a portrayal of how one dog broke the vicious stigmas attached to him, just because of his breed. Those who knew him, even for a brief time, would tell you that he was not your typical Rottweiler, as they understood a Rottweiler to be. Instead, they would tell you that he was a big teddy bear, who wore a perpetual smile. His life gave meaning to the term, "Gentle Soul," as evidenced by the many anecdotes provided. And each anecdote is a sub-story of the misadventures of a kind soul that was Oscar.

On the winter day that the ailing, tick-infested feral pup was rescued by Steve Duno, neither dog nor man had a clue as to what they were getting into, or where the relationship would lead.

Lou won the respect of gang members, foiled an armed robbery, caught a rapist, fought coyotes and kidnappers, comforted elderly war veterans and Alzheimer patients in their final days, taught ASL to kids, learned scores of unique behaviors and tricks, amassed a vocabulary of nearly 200 words, helped rehabilitate hundreds of aggressive dogs and saved them from euthanasia. He was also a clown, consummate performer and Steve's best friend for sixteen years. His story will make readers laugh and cry in equal measures.
