Book Synopsis The Other End of the Leash by : Patricia McConnell, Ph.D.
Download or read book The Other End of the Leash written by Patricia McConnell, Ph.D. and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2009-02-19 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn to communicate with your dog—using their language “Good reading for dog lovers and an immensely useful manual for dog owners.”—The Washington Post An Applied Animal Behaviorist and dog trainer with more than twenty years’ experience, Dr. Patricia McConnell reveals a revolutionary new perspective on our relationship with dogs—sharing insights on how “man’s best friend” might interpret our behavior, as well as 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. Quite simply, humans are primates and dogs are canids (as are wolves, coyotes, and foxes). Since we each speak a different native tongue, a lot gets lost in the translation. This marvelous guide demonstrates how even the slightest changes in our voices and in the ways we stand can help dogs understand what we want. Inside you will discover: • How you can get your dog to come when called by acting less like a primate and more like a dog • Why the advice to “get dominance” over your dog can cause problems • Why “rough and tumble primate play” can lead to trouble—and how to play with your dog in ways that are fun and keep him out of mischief • How dogs and humans share personality types—and why most dogs want to live with benevolent leaders rather than “alpha wanna-bes!” Fascinating, insightful, and compelling, The Other End of the Leash is a book that strives to help you connect with your dog in a completely new way—so as to enrich that most rewarding of relationships.

But when their truck breaks down, the family trip takes plenty of unexpected turns. Before they know it, they've commandeered an old school bus and joined forces with its cranky mechanic, Gus.

With alternating chapters from both Ben and his dog, Atticus, this fast-paced book takes readers on an unpredictable ride that's all about family, friendship, and surprises.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nick Doherty has a secret ability—so secret, in fact, he doesn’t even know it exists. Outwardly, he has it all: a prestigious career, a bevy of eager women, and he is intriguingly well-liked. What no one can imagine is his possession of two overactive amygdalae that radiate any spates of fear or anger he might have into those nearby with an amplified effect—a reverse empath, if you will. Nick’s unusual power makes him an emotional powder keg to those near him. All his aberrant behavior is demystified in a letter bequeathed by his father, who confesses information withheld until his death about their family curse. Newly aware of his undetectable superpower, Nick exploits it to bring down his diabolic rival and systematically advance his career, until a life-altering event flips the script, and he reboots on a quest to oxygenate the lives of others on a grand scale. A humorous primer on dealing with misfortunes through dogged determination, PERSONALITY + Puissance is a thought-provoking read about relationships and self-evolution.
