The dog who would walk through fire for you; A practical guide to living with a German Shepherd
Description
"You don't force respect with pain.
You earn it with boundaries."
You're doing your best. Yet he still pulls on the leash. Jumps up at visitors.
Reacts fiercely to other dogs. And there you are, feeling like you're failing as the owner of a dog you love so much.
Author Paul Berendsen knows that feeling all too well. Not because he got it right from day one, but because he learned it — after thirty years and four German Shepherds of his own
- through trial and error.
A German Shepherd isn't a dog you need to "drill" or show who's boss. He's an intelligent, sensitive animal who senses when you're uncertain, and who asks for clarity not force, and not tricks.
In this book, you'll discover:
• Why so much training advice can backfire.
• 10 core exercises you can start using today.
• How to become the calm owner who has his dog's complete trust.
No dogma, no dominance theory -just a clear approach that helps you build, step by step, toward a calmer dog, and a calmer, more confident you.
For anyone who doesn't want to tame his German Shepherd, but wants to understand him.
Paul Berendsen is the founder of Zieda, a creative agency for branding and design, and of Silly Shepherds. With his German Shepherd Zara and black German Shepherd Odin by his side, he translates thirty years of hands-on experience into this book.
