The book is written by Emma Parsons. She is very knowledgeable about clicker dog training. There are no pictures in this book.


5 out of 5 stars Fear Aggression   October 8, 2007
Amy Michelle (Wilmington, NC)
Excellent book if you have a dog with fear aggression, and still helpful if you have a dog without aggression issues. This book includes basic obedience training techniques using a clicker with step by step techniques, plus includes why it is useful with aggressive dogs. I have a dog who shows some tendencies toward fear aggression with our other older deaf dog. The book has helped me learn how to calm his fear aggression using obedience training and other helpful techniques included in the book.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent Resource for Helping a Fearful Dog   February 19, 2007

I have used many books in my personal quest to help a dog who is fearful by nature find the world a less frightening place. The techniques that Emma Parsons puts forth in this book have done him a world of good and have given me confidence as his handler.

I recommend this book to anyone who has a fearful dog.

Fantastic book and techniques for training aggressive or in many cases reactive (not aggressive) dogs. Gone are the days of confrontational dog training and punishment, the new techniques for positive reinforcement in training work wonders. Emma Parson's book teaches calming techniques to use in stressful situations. Correcting a dog's behavior takes time and patience but it no longer needs to be cruel and traumatic.

The author offers realistic training tips that families sharing their homes with a dog can use. Few pages wasted on theory -- readers bought the book because they agree with clicker training and Parsons understands this.

However, I would have liked to seen a conclusion, reinforcing what these gentle methods good and final words of encouragement. In addition, it would have been better to have more than one case study anwering the question, "Will this approach work on dogs other than the author's?"

I've been using what I learned and have been better able to manage my dog's leash aggressive. Plenty of tips that will keep me busy for months and years as I revisit them.
