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.
