The Amazon Store at MillionDollarPetPix.com ( In association with Amazon.com )How to be the Leader of the Pack...And have Your Dog Love You For It. ("How to" booklets from Dog's Best Friend) - How to be the Leader of the Pack...And have Your Dog Love You For It.Succinct and informative, this booklet provides a window into the differences and similarities between my expectations as a human and our dogs' expectations as canids. After reading this booklet, I am better able to observe our 2 dogs' behavior from a more appropriate perspective as they interact with each other and with us. I'm convinced that I'm better and more consistent leader of our little pack after reading it. Rating: - Wonderful, short resourceI foster dogs for a local dog rescue organization, and had a foster dog that was extremely shy and was difficult to adopt out. He put a lot of adopters off by being so frightened of new people. I ordered this book, and recommended it to a potential adopter. Because Ms. McConnell paints a "worst case scenario" picture, the adopter was pleasantly surprised at the dog's good nature after adoption and had prepared herself greatly by reading this book. I now recommend Patricia's book to any potential owner that hasn't owned dogs before, or is interested in adopting a more challenging dog. Rating: - How to be the Leader of the Pack...And have Your Dog Love You For It.Excellent service, great condition. I would use them again. Rating: - Excellent IntroductionThis pamphlet is a wonderful introduction into developing a the leader relationship with your family's canine companion. It introduces the concept of NILIF "Nothing In Life is Free", a positive training method used to place humans in the alpha role of the pack. It is also often used on proven aggressive dogs, but is better to do it right from the start. I would not recommend using the pamphlet as the sole source for training the family dog, but it's an excellent start. A very fast read with easy, understandable language. Highly recommended. Excellent gift for every new dog owning family. Rating:  - Simple instructions but a bit briefI didn't learn anything new from this booklet but it covers the basics that a first time dog owner may not know. Its size makes it great to carry around or to pass along to someone who needs it. I found it was easier to give to a friend who's dog rules the house and hopefully it didn't seem too pushy. It seems less offensive if you drop off a simple booklet rather than burying them under a huge book outlining all the things they're doing wrong with a pet. Its great at home too because I can leave this lying around in our living room and certain family members may actually read something this short. However, the fact that its very brief means it should probably not be the only book read on the topic. Hopefully it will interest them enough to go find out more. I'd call it a portable, quick reference guide.
