Dr. Sophia Yin is a boarded veterinary behaviorist that has written some really great books and articles about behavior management and training with pets. I just read this article today and found it very interesting. It basically says that the "dominance theory" that a lot of dog trainers use is not necessarily even behavior that our dogs exhibit. I definitely want to read some more of her work. I was excited to find that, through December, you can get a FREE online (abridged) copy of "Low Stress Handling and Behavior Management of Dogs and Cats". This book deals with situations that cause your pets a lot of stress (nail trims in my house) and how to work with your pet to ease the discomfort and make the experience less stressful.
