Whisper, don't shout—good advice is quiet  

The times when dogs were trained to be only obedient or to carry out certain tasks are long gone, with most dog owners today wanting a relationship based on mutual understanding and a much closer bond to their four-legged friend. This book presents a unique method that will help readers develop non-verbal, almost intuitive communication with their dogs. Most commands are made using the voice, but this book explains how to train a dog to understand its human companion's wishes by interpreting nonverbal signals. There are many practical examples of ways to develop a link between pet and owner that is based on harmony and mutual understanding.
