Synopsis

Graeme Sims – the man who "speaks dog" – is hailed as one of the world's most respected dog trainers. His approach depends on his matchless ability to get into the mind of the dog - to be truly a 'dog whisperer'. Many of our difficulties in training dogs come from a failure to appreciate how differently from us they respond to situations; and he explains how our misinterpretation of their reactions can cause them unhappiness and contribute to behavioural problems.

In a series of case studies, he shows how, with understanding and patience, we can reach the nervous, the difficult or the disturbed rescue dog, and help them finally to feel that they have a real home. His book gives you a chance to look at life from the dog's point of view and to understand thoroughly what you see; it is for anyone who wants to earn the right to be their dog's best friend.
