The Lurcher: Training And Hunting Book

I really enjoyed the information in this book. Both scientific and anecdotal, it gave me much insight into the relationship between my dog and me, and the world around him.
It was funny in parts, and a little sad in others. Most of the scientific/physiological information was illustrated with stories of her own dogs. She's a very good story teller. Even the complicated info was explained very well, and with vivid examples from the dogs on her farm, and various clients' dogs that she has trained over the years.

I learned to read my dog's body language better, and I can see that there are some things I do that my dog merely tolerates in order to stay close to me. I learned to read other dogs we come in contact with, and how to handle potential problems before they arise. How fights from fear, jealousy, or dominance can be avoided by paying attention to the the tell-tale signs that previously I might have mis-read differently.
I will definitely read this again, because I know I didn't soak it all up the first time.
