Mindful Dog Teaching: Reflections on the Relationships We Share with Our Dogs by Claudeen E. Mc Auliffe, M.Ed.

Mindful Dog Teaching is not a book about training; it's about the relationship that needs to be created in order to establish a foundation for effective training. Based on the concept of eros - engagement, relationship, order, stability - Mc Auliffe presents a framework for interacting with our dogs that facilitates our mutual teaching and learning. Through examples and practice exercises, she helps dog owners go beyond simple obedience to develop a deeper connection with their canine companions.
