Ever wondered what's going on in your dog's head?

Why are some dogs aggressive and others not? What are dogs telling us in their language? And what is it that makes them bark at that most hated of enemies, the postman?

In To Be Frank, dog behaviour consultant Aftab Ahmed draws on twenty years of experience to explain what really makes dogs tick, and how you can use this knowledge to help manage problem behaviours using kind and positive training methods.

Whether your dog is:

Suffering from separation anxiety

Resource guarding

Being aggressive towards people and dogs

Pulling on the lead

Jumping up

Hiding from noises

Or chasing cyclists

To Be Frank will help you understand the root cause of unwanted behaviours and how - with patience, compassion and positive reinforcement - you can help your dog to resolve this, leading to a happier time for both of you.

Whether you need help with resolving problem behaviours or if you just want to understand your furry friend that bit better, this is the book for you!
