✦ Synopsis

HHandbook of Applied Dog Behaviour and Training, Volume two: Etiology and Assessment of Behaviour Problems is the definitive reference for dog trainers, behaviourists, breeders and veterinarians. Coupled with Volume one, this text provides theoretical and practical framework for understanding the development and treatment of dog behaviour problems.

Topics covered include Fear, anxiety and phobias, Separation-related problems, Hyperactivity, and Dominance, territorial, and fear-related aggression.

The focus is to present and evaluate the relevant applied and scientific literature, and to highlight what remains to be learned, while the author introduces alternative ways for analysing and understanding the etiology of dog behaviour problems.

Coupled with Lindsay's first volume, Adaptation and Training, this second volume fills the gap in current information, covering behavioral assessment; fears and phobias; attachment, separation, and related problems; excessive behavior; aggressive behavior; territorial and social aggression; and appetite and elimination. Easy-to-read and informative, there are no other books of this caliber on the market.
