Book Reviews of Mine! A Practical Guide to Resource Guarding in Dogs
Book Review: Essential
Summary: 5 Stars
This is essential reading for anyone who owns a dog that guards resources. It could prevent a child from being bitten. It could save your dog's life. The procedures in the book are based on sound theory, and they work. I do not know of any other book on the subject, so it's a good thing that this one gets it right.
I adopted two strays that were aggressive resource-guarders. I worked the plan in this book, and now I think they would give up anything. I caught one of my dogs swallowing a "mystery lump" in the living room. I casually opened his jaws and removed it from the back of his throat. No complaints. It turned out to be only a cheese cube that I had dropped when making myself a sandwich. So I gave the dog a third of a weenie, and then I gave him back the cheese. I swear he looked at me like I was crazy, but he was happy with the exchange.
It is a very thin book, but all the info you need is there. Buy it.
