Summary: On Talking Terms with Dogs: Calming Signals
Comment: This is a book, IMO, that every person should read. When you read this book and observe your dog or other dogs somewhere, you will see just what they are saying. To think, I thought for a long time, that when a dog "yawned" he was tired. I find myself looking for these "Calming Signals" all the time with mine or others.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Fantasically great
Comment: I cannot believe how much this book helps me communicate with my reactive dog. I have a small library of dog books and by far this little book outshines them all.
I also foster dogs and this helps me get acquainted with all the different breeds and the author is right they (dogs) all speak the same language.
You have to be smart enough to apply the techniques. I've read some real stupid reviews.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Good ideas
Comment: Short book, easy read, good ideas... I enjoy learning about dogs and have been using the ideas daily.

Summary: Calming signals
Comment: I have been a dog owner for years. After reading this book, it has been interesting to observe my own and other dogs with a new depth of understanding, and to be able to communicate with them more easily. It's easy to forget that dogs have no verbal language as we do and can easily misunderstand our words and actions, as we can misunderstand theirs.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Okay
Comment: I found the information of body language to be interesting, but limited. I was really expecting more information to make a difference with training and understanding dogs.
