Book description
Dog Parenting: An Illustrated Guide to Understanding, Training and Bonding with Your Best Friend is a breath-of-fresh-air manual for anyone who wants to turn the everyday chaos of dog ownership into a harmonious partnership. Amy Pike, alongside fellow experts Beth Mullen and Tara Murtagh, distills decades of behavioural science into a series of bright, bite-size infographics that feel less like a textbook and more like a friendly chat over coffee.
What sets this book apart is its focus on the dog's point of view. Instead of shouting "sit" or "stay," you learn to read your pup's body language-tail wag nuances, ear position, eye contact-and then respond with empathy. The step-by-step tutorials cover everything from toilet training and anxiety relief to basic obedience, all framed in a way that lets the dog feel understood rather than corrected.
The illustrations are more than pretty; they act as visual cues that reinforce the verbal instructions. A simple diagram of a relaxed posture paired with a "good" sign helps you see when your dog is comfortable, while a flowchart for handling barking anxiety turns an intimidating problem into a manageable sequence of actions.
Readers consistently praise how approachable the tone feels-no jargon, no over-the-top dog-training hype. The book's compact size makes it a handy reference to keep in the kitchen or on the couch. For first-time owners grappling with puppy jitters, and for seasoned trainers looking for a fresh perspective, this guide delivers real results: calmer dogs, stronger bonds, and the confidence that you're meeting your furry friend on their level.
If you've ever wondered why your dog's "good boy" looks more like a confused expression than a proud grin, this illustrated manual will show you how to translate those signals into meaningful training. Dog Parenting isn't just another dog-training book-it's an invitation to a deeper, more compassionate relationship with the animal that has stolen your heart.
