Thanks for the doggy book recommendations. I’ve actually read 2 of the 3 on your list. I’ll have to visit Amazon and pick up The Culture Clash. I love reading all I can about dogs and dog training.

I’ve been raising service pups several years and teach dog obedience. The first two books are more advanced and have to be read carefully thru but help you understand what dogs really think vs what humans think they think! My communication and understanding with my dogs has gone way up. The dog trick book is very user friendly and full of clear photos breaking down every step. My dogs and I have had much fun with this book. They don’t get their daily fish oil pill until they’ve done a trick from the book!

By the way, have you seen the Cesar Millan Mastering Leadership DVD’s? It’s a pretty good set and similar to his show the Dog Whisperer. In fact I think he uses some of his show footage as case studies.
