My Dog is Satan. An Engaging Guide for Nervous Dog Owners

Have you heard the myth that if you don’t train and don’t punish a dog, it won’t listen and will walk all over you? But many of us get dogs not to guard the yard or attack intruders. Modern urban... dogs need a modern approach to obedience! This book will help you raise a wonderful companion without using force, because "keeping company"—is not about following commands, but about enjoyable communication. We get a dog so that we can be calm and happy with it, not to give it orders! The author of the book, Yulia Podkosova, is a specialist in behavioral correction and mental health for dogs, the creator of the K9 Friendly website and the "Dog Guide," known to thousands of dog owners both in Russia and abroad. In this book, she will tell you how to raise your pet not as a submissive subordinate, but as a full-fledged family member, with whom you will feel good. You will learn how much obedience actually depends not on training commands, but on the dog's health, its state, and relationships with you. You will receive a simple and logical system with real-life examples and specific practical recommendations, which will help you make your dog comfortable in daily life and safe for yourself and others without dominance, punishments, shouting, and tears. And all of this with a light touch of psychotherapy, self-love, and acceptance!
