The Other End of the Leash: Why We Do What We Do Around Dogs, by Patricia McConnell.
The Other End Of The Leash reveals surprising perspectives on our relationship with dogs, including how “man’s best friend” might interpret our behavior very differently than what we intend.
McConnell also offers 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. A lot gets lost in translation. This marvelous guide demonstrates how even the slightest changes in our voices and in the way we stand can help dogs understand what we want.
Fascinating, insightful, and compelling, The Other End of the Leash is a book that will help you connect with your dog in a completely new way, and enrich that most rewarding of relationships.
