 Opens your eyes and heart. April 16, 2008

This book gave me an attitude change from 'how to deal with this beloved nuisance of a pet' to 'I am lucky enough live with a creature I can learn to understand'. This book gives a view of the world through the dogs needs and perceptions. It allows the human owner a way into that world. You realise that the dog is always trying to reach into 'our' world and we sometimes forget from how far the dog has to reach. Made me a better dog owner.

I have read many, many books on dogs, and this one did not really tell me anything new. For the price, it was a waste of my money.

Turid Rugaas's books are short and are written in a simple, conversational way. But Barking, like her other books, deserves many readings. She discusses five commonly identified natural kinds of barking and adds a sixth---learned barking. Her calm, kind approach to dogs and their people offers solutions to dog owners who are troubled by barking, and adds to all dog owners' understanding of their dogs. She emphasizes that dogs are expressing emotions through barking,shows how management can help reduce barking that is creating a problem for human beings, focuses on reducing stress in dogs' lives, and reminds readers that recognizing and respecting animals' emotions is necessary for us to be human.
