At last! A kids-and-dogs book for parents written by someone who "gets it."
~ Parenting books say control your dog; dog-training books say control your kids. The reality is far more complex and goes way beyond placing blame on either children or dogs for being who they are. ~ Living With Kids & Dogs . . .Without Losing Your Mind provides busy parents with simple, realistic advice to help ensure that the relationship between their kids and their dog is safe and enjoyable for all. You will learn how toYou too can have kids and canines without chaos! This book shows you how.
Many dog-training books are available, and certainly numerous books dispense advice on raising kids, but relatively few address both issues. A professional dog trainer and mother of three, Pelar provides here a remedy for the human/dog misunderstandings that can lead to dog bites (or worse), especially those involving children. Focusing on the tenets of "relationship, management and training," Pelar presents age-specific chapters (from birth to teens) with advice on building good relations between the dog and the child, managing their interactions wisely, and training the dog to prevent problems from arising. In addition, she counsels when (and whether) to get a grown dog or a puppy, what to look for in a family dog, what to look out for in terms of temperament, and how to deal with the end of that special relationship because of death or permanent separation. (Although the author strives to provide the reader with skills to avoid such a situation, she acknowledges that occasionally it is necessary to find a new home for a problematic dog.) A good addition to collections on parenting or pets in any public library.-Kay Hogan Smith, Univ. of Alabama at Birmingham Lib., Lister Hill Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.
