ruthless Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Anyone know any good ones? A little light reading for the long weekend :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staranais Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 The only two books I know that deal primarily with pack leadership are by Cesar Millan and Jan Fennel, and I didn't particularly like either of them. But I guess you might as well give them a go if they're available at your library, different strokes for different folks eh. :rolleyes: Patricia McConnell's "the other end of the leash" is mostly about human-canine communication, but it touches on pack leadership a little bit, and I'd recommend it as a good read. There are lots of free good articles on the web too - check out the Leerburg website for their free e-books on "groundwork" for example. Hopefully others can help you more?

Guest Steph & Bam Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 (edited) I've downloaded and read, then re-read the Leerburg ones and they make a lot of sense to me, but I implement a much softer version. I found it quite effective. I've also read Jan Fennels books and loved it. ETA: To be honest, I'm not sure of Ceaser Milans methods, I haven't seen them effectively implemented so I guess I can't really comment.

Kelpie-i Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 William Campbell's "Behaviour Problems in Dogs" is very good and is quite heavy on Leadership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
