"Dusty, Here!" : Authorhouse : 9781418468637 : 1418468630 : 18 Aug 2004 : Have you ever heard of an "alpha leader"? Do you know that dogs of all breeds and personalities are constantly evaluating their statuses in a pack (of which you are a part)? Do you know that dogs really want to please their human leaders; that they don't misbehave out of spite or any other motivation? Do you know that a dog's point of view differs from your own? If you answered "No" to any of these questions or you answered "Yes" but love to read entertaining, yet informative, books, you need to meet Dusty. "Dusty, Here!" is a conversation between Dusty, a dog, and Uncle Duffy, his "behavior modifier" and obedience trainer. Complete with delightful illustrations and pet portraits, this book is entertaining for children and adults alike and is chocked full of practical information on how you can modify your dog's behavior on a day-to-day business.
