DOMINANCE IN DOGS FACT OR FICTION?DOMINANCE IN DOGS FACT OR FICTION?
Author - Barry Eaton - Publisher - Dogwise

You may have read books or seen TV shows that tell you that your dog will seek to dominate you, your family members and other pets unless you become the “alpha” and put him in his place. The theory is that since dogs evolved from wolves and wolves (supposedly) form packs with strict pecking orders and battle each other to become the pack leader, your dog will do the same within your household.

In this new edition, author Barry Eaton separates out the facts from the fiction regarding dominance in pet dogs, presenting the reader with the results of recent research into the behaviour of wolves and the impacts of selective breeding on the behaviour of dogs. The results may surprise you and will surely inform you.

IF DOGS COULD TALKIF DOGS COULD TALK
Author - Vilmos Csanyi - Publisher - Sutton

Every dog owner knows that there's something special about the degree of mutual understanding that exists between humans and dogs. Now, Vilmos Csanyi traces the roots of this unique relationship back to the unusual circumstances in which the two species co-evolved over many millennia.

The author argues that the alliance of dogs and humans arose from behavioural traits present in the original wolves from which all modern dogs are descended. Wolves, like humans, are highly intelligent social predators, with well-developed cooperative problem-solving and communications skills. These basic intellectual skills were refined and enhanced over tens of thousands of years forming the unique bond between dogs and their owners that exists today.

Author - Frieman - Publisher - Wadsworth

Current research on conditioning and learning reflects three themes: a methodological behavioral theme that focuses on how certain experiences lead to changes in behavior, a cognitive theme that focuses on how experiences are represented in memory, and an evolutionary/adaptive behavior theme that focuses on the various kinds of learning as adaptive specializations that evolved through the mechanism of natural selection.

These themes are interwoven to present an integrated and coherent account of our current state of knowledge in the area. The evolutionary/adaptive behavior theme is the central theme within which the cognitive and behavioral themes are developed here.

Author - Jennifer Arnold - Publisher - Souvenir Press

Jennifer Arnold has trained service dogs for people with physical disabilities and special needs for over twenty years. In that time she has developed a unique understanding of dogs abilities and their as yet untapped potential. By understanding the capabilities, intelligence and extrasensory skills of dogs she has taught dogs to make choices, instead of following commands, and her results have been extraordinary.

Through A Dog s Eyes reveals the science behind Jennifer Arnold s remarkable training methods. Based on the belief that dogs are naturally trusting beings attuned to their owners needs who aim to please, Jennifer Arnold calls for an end to traditional dog-training strategies based on the theory of alpha dominance that is being increasingly challenged by modern science.

Jennifer Arnold s choice-based, positive-reinforcement-only methods are based on kindness and respect, founded on scientific discoveries from the work of Charles Darwin, Edward O. Wilson, Rupert Sheldrake and many others. Written with the practical experience of having founded a service-dog school Jennifer Arnold is an inspirational guide for any dog-owner and she draws from her own life, and the lives of the dogs who were her greatest teachers, in emotional, compelling and uplifting stories that are testimony to the training methods she has developed.
