Click to Calm: Healing the Aggressive Dog by Emma Parsons

Positive answers for the aggressive dog.  The dog that bites.  The dog that attacks other dogs.  The dog who may not survive his own aggressive behavior.  What can be done to help these dogs?

When Emma Parson, canine behavior consultant, discovered that her own dog was aggressive, she developed innovative and effective strategies to calm, alter, and re-shape his reactive displays, and those of her clients' dogs.  

Now Parsons's strategies- all grounded in positive reinforcement- are available to everyone in Click to Calm: Healing the Aggressive Dog.  With more than 40 clear exercises, presented in an easy-to-follow "training recipe" format, Click to Calm teaches both pet owners and experienced trainers how to:                                                           

• Desensitize your dog to approaching strange dogs                                                           
• Grab your dog's collar without getting bitten                                                                     
• Teach dogs to perform canine calming signals on cue                                                       
• Use your own body language when under stress as a cue for your dog to remain calm

...plus many more creative and effective uses of managing behavior through positive reinforcement and clicker training.
