Listen To Me!
Exploring The Emotional Life Of Dogs
Tricia Hollingshead
Behaviourist Tricia Hollingshead makes an extraordinary examination of the emotional life of dogs, focusing on the everyday interactions between a dog and his family.
Using close observation, backed by her extensive experience of interpreting canine communication, Tricia explains how to pick up vital clues that show how a dog really feels. She then provides insights explaining how, with a few simple adjustments, you can often make life substantially better for the dogs in your care.
Illustrated with more than 200 colour photos, taken in a wide variety of domestic situations, this book provides visual evidence of the emotional range of dogs. With Tricia’s help, we can become experts in reading the most subtle changes in canine body language and signalling, so that we can avoid misunderstandings and misinterpretations and be ready to offer help and support when it is most needed.
Remember: your dog is telling you how he is feeling – all you have to do is listen to him!
Amazon Reviews
“I read this book from cover to cover…I loved it! Tricia has an amazing talent in observing and processing dog behaviour. I’m an educational psychologist and I am often observing children’s behaviour but I struggle to see the minute detail and am not able to process the speed at which dog behaviour happens. Thankfully Tricia has done this for us.” R.J. Foster
“I thought I knew dogs well as I work with them every day, and live with one, but as soon as I opened the pages of Tricia’s book I was gaining valuable insights.” Tamsin Lucinda O’Brien
