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 - McAuliffe presents a
framework for interacting with our dogs that facilitates our mutual
teaching and learning. When you teach a skill, there is a give and take
that builds the relationship, improves results, and makes both teacher
and student feel good. Go beyond simple obedience and training to
develop a deeper connection with your canine companion.
