AreaK9 is about dogs, how they perceive the world-which is totally different from the way humans do-and how they communicate with each other. Understanding "dog speak" provides great insights into what a dog is feeling and thinking at any point in time. The book answers questions on whether you should have a dog, how to choose a dog, and how to prepare your home and family for a new dog. There are answers to lots of specific dog-related problems, how to solve them, and better yet, how to prevent them. If you are a dog lover (of course, you are!) and you are willing to invest a little time each day in training your canine companion, you can improve your dog's life, while improving your relationship at the same time. The goal of AreaK9 is to convince you that dogs simply want to be with us and with other dogs, and to provide us with unconditional love. After reading this book, you will be able to achieve a happy and fulfilling relationship with your dog-you can improve your life AND your dog's life, both emotionally and physically.
