Some dogs are friendly with other dogs, and others are consistently aggressive or fearful, no matter the breed. In this fully illustrated instructional guide, dog expert Jamie Shaw explains to readers the natural and learned instincts that form a dog's temperament, and teaches us how to apply the right kind of behavioural training methods to ensure a "dog friendly" dog that will be the toast of the dog park. Complete with photos and chock full of helpful step-by-step information, Shaw also shares case histories of specific dogs who transformed their doggie manners even when their owners thought all hope was lost. This is an easy-to-use handbook for those of us who want to keep our dogs safe and happy in any social situation.
