Publisher's Synopsis
You've heard the expression "to wear one's heart on their sleeve." It means that someone lets their emotions be known without actually having to tell anybody how they feel. Dogs are in a constant state of wearing their hearts on their sleeves. Pups are great because of how simple they can be. They have a very instinctual language and as we learn to recognize how they communicate, we begin to better understand what our furry friend is telling us through dog body language.
You don't have to be Cesar Milan to know when a dog is happy, hurt or angry. The obvious sign of a wagging tail or a vicious growl lets you know right away what that dog is feeling at that exact moment. What you may not have noticed were the subtle signs that led to that behavior that lets us humans know how a canine arrives at a certain state of mind.
This book ultimately guides you to understand all the various body parts and vocal sounds dogs use in communicating to us. It widely covers various critical situations and possible body language nuances dogs put up to tell us what they want and how they feel. It is very important we understand what they are saying and act accordingly to keep them from harm's way or please them.
Our dog gets frustrated, disappointed and possibly unleash aggression each time they don't understand us or we don't understand them. Decoding your dog through understanding dog's body language is key to avoid conflicts with our canine friend. It helps us to bond deeply with them.
