AN INDISPENSABLE GUIDE FOR ANY DOG OWNER--NEW OR SEASONED

Jennifer Arnold has come to a unique understanding of the human-dog bond over the two decades she has spent raising and training service dogs for Canine Assistants. She developed a methodology--Choice Teaching--that pairs scientific and behavioral knowledge about dogs with gentle incentive and encouragement to extraordinary effect. Here Arnold shares

- how to choose the puppy that's destined for you and what to have on hand before you bring that puppy home
- best practices when it comes to teaching your dog essential and even lifesaving commands
- what to stock in your doggie first-aid kit
- how to keep your pet safe from dangers at home and in the outside world
- how to help your dog overcome anxious behavior, from separation anxiety to thunderstorm phobia
- the challenges and rewards of adopting an older dog

Throughout the book are captivating stories of the extraordinary ways in which dogs prove themselves worthy of our care and devotion--and how we can, and why we should, help them achieve what they so deserve.

"This guide is as practical as it is wise, a keeper book for ready reference."--Susannah Charleson, author of Scent of the Missing: Love and Partnership with a Search-and-Rescue Dog

"An informative and entertaining book . . . [Arnold's] insightful words provide knowledge every dog owner needs."--Publishers Weekly
