Synopsis:
CANINE REFLECTIONSMemoirsOf a Police K-9 Handler/Behaviorist Trainer This book is a personal, candid journey with the author that begins with a dog he briefly knew in his youth that belonged to an Uncle; to when he became a new Police K-9 Handler having never had a dog of his own before; through his evolution to becoming a Behaviorist Dog Trainer and "Dog Whisperer" that today helps dog owners learn how to understand, communicate, train and relate to their dogs. He "Helps Dogs with People Problems"! Through his unique, emotional and eye opening experiences you can feel the ups, the downs, the elation, the heartbreak, the frustration and the humor of learning to understand how dogs think and interpret their world and how we as humans fit in to that world. If you ever wanted to understand and receive professional perspective from someone who has really been through how to look at your dog in a different and benevolent light by understanding what training is designed to accomplish for both you and your four legged companion, or if you ever just wanted to know if someone ever felt the same frustrations and joys about their dog as you do, then this book is for you. It will also help you learn and distinguish the differences between professional dog training assistance and old fashioned traditional training attitudes that cater to political correctness, marketing and trying to please every human point of view without teaching, caring or even really knowing how the dog might actually interpret things. Take the journey. You and your dog may never be the same again!
