On Talking Terms with Dogs:: Calming Signals

by Turid Rugaas

On Talking Terms with Dogs:: Calming Signals Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

One of our all time best selling books is now in its second edition with three additional chapters, color photos and descriptive captions. Turid Rugaas is a noted expert on canine body language, notably "calming signals" which are signals dogs give to other dogs and humans to denote stress and to attempt defuse situations that otherwise might result in fights or aggression. Written in practical, down-to-earth, logical language. Companion DVD, 'Calming Signals: What Your Dog Tells You', DTB788, is also available.

The first edition was revolutionary but the 2nd takes it to a whole new level. This booklet has been totally revamped. More Calming Signals are explained/explored and with full color photos too. This is a must have for every dog owner and at a great affordable price. Dog trainers should be handing these out to their clients so that more people can understand what their dogs are communicating with them and other dogs.

So even if you already have a copy of the first edition, you're going to want this one too! It's better!

It will be great to 'talk' with Turid about this new edition when she joined us for another one of her whirlwind visits at YahooGroup CSDogBookReview April 18-21, 2006. She'll be back December 2007 for a full week, if you missed her last visit.

If you thought you'd like Brenda Aloff's Canine Body Language but the $39 price tag was scaring you, get this booklet!
