midori115 Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 I'm looking for a few good - fairly basic -- books on canine behavior and/or training. any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abker17 Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 So Your Dog's Not Lassie GREAT book!!!!!!! It is my dog bible. The lady that wrote it trains bulldogs with whome she's won multiple obediance awards. And bulldogs are not the easiest to train..... please nobody take that as an offense, I'm sure there are bulldogs out there that are easily trained, it's just from what I've heard from bulldog owners, that they look at u when u ask something of them and go "And why should I do that?" :lol: The book is more of a training book for stubborn/not easily trained/just need to be motivated more dogs. :D It's still a good book though, and I highly recommend it! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 "the other end of the leash" by patricia mcconnell. one of the best books on canine behavior i have read yet - and most important, it explains the differences in how dogs and people communicate, and why it is important to understand those differences to avoid problems.

courtnek Posted September 27, 2003 Share Posted September 27, 2003 "Why Does My Dog...?" by John Fisher Excellent advice in training ( he's a Behaviorist in Britain) and very fun to read. It's light hearted, not real stuffy, and has some excellent advice and suggestions. also, because I like it, "Linda Goodman's Sun Signs" - it's an astrology book, but she does a whole bit on pets and their astrological behaviors and it's LOTS of fun to read. (according to her, Snoopy was an Aquarian.....nothing else could explain his "off the wall" characteristics, and since I'm an Aquarian I can relate.... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aurelius_victor Posted September 29, 2003 Share Posted September 29, 2003 [color=blue]I completely agree with abker17, Betty Fisher's [u]So Your Dog's Not Lassie ...[/u] is my doggie training bible! It's just a well written book with some pictures to demonstrate proper positioning and body language.
