Reseña del editor:

What Your Dog Wants is a unique book that focuses on you, the dog owner, and encourages you to develop the seven key skills that will teach you how to work with your dog as a team. Each chapter introduces a key skill--from comprehension to communication to motivation--and shows you how to build on the basics and develop them further. You’ll read about why it’s important to create a digging area for some dogs, why you should use a consistent set of signals, and why you should always approach a new dog from the side. By following the expert guidance in What Your Dog Wants, you can build on your skills as an owner and learn how to make your dog friendly, happy, healthy, and well-behaved, making him or her a pleasure to own.
