America's habit of supersizing everything from sodas to SUVs hasn't escaped our family dogs, at least according to the marketing world, which nearly always features beautifully-feathered golden retrievers or stately mastiffs rounding out our romanticized ideas of a life well-lived. From a branding standpoint, small dogs allegedly prevent us from being taken seriously: they weaken our images, painting us as lacking the athleticism, the strength, and the powerful personalities to run with the big dogs. Like all stereotypes, however, little truth exists in the outdated idea that big dogs are better dogs, or that small dogs are yappy, snappy, and annoying. More important, oftentimes going small is not merely the wise choice, it's the only choice. Whether you're a big dog lover secretly contemplating a small dog in your future, or you're already a small dog fan, you'll love the way Downward Sizing Dog explores and explodes our outdated understanding of dogs and size. Part narrative interviews and memoir, part meticulously researched guide to the social intelligence and transformative nature of small dogs, Downward Sizing Dog celebrates the powerful canine beings packaged in perfectly-proportioned small-dog frames.

Just try typing “are small dogs smart…” into its search bar, and Google jumps in prematurely, finishing your sentence for you with suggestions like: “dumb?” “yappy?” “annoying?” Well, no. No, Google, they’re not. We’ve got to say it: Small dogs deserve more respect. If you’ve ever wondered why people love their small dogs like their kids or wished you had a good comeback for the opinionated big dog snob next door when he insults your ten-pound Pekingese, you’ve picked up the right book. In this big defense of small dogs, Downward Sizing Dog proves it’s just not true that big dogs are better dogs or that small dogs are yappy, snappy, annoying, and probably unhousebroken. Weaving real-life stories with new research on the social intelligence and transformative nature of small dogs, Downward Sizing Dog celebrates the powerful canine beings packaged in perfectly-proportioned small-dog frames. With its investigation into every aspect of small dog life, Downward Sizing Dog shows that small dogs deserve not merely more respect; they deserve a place in our families and on our favorite furniture.

Since its initial publication, Beyond Basic Dog Training has achieved well deserved recognition as an innovative, unique guide to obedience instruction. Obedience authority Diane Bauman's proven training philosophy asserts that the time has come to go beyond training dogs and start teaching them to please us. This has made a vital difference for those who use her method-and for dogs taught by it to succeed in competitive canine sports. In this new, updated edition, Bauman presents the most current knowledge on canine learning patterns. Believing that dogs learn by trial and error, Bauman provides a novel approach that encourages dogs to learn by removing corrections for incorrect responses. As a result, dogs do not fear failure and are taught to exercise options in a quest for the desired behavior. Bauman shows you how to become a "thinking handler" who can train the "thinking dog." Her remarkable ability to view training from the dog's perspective translates into an invaluable tool for building effective communication between you and your dog. The instruction in this authoritative guide is behind Gaines "Superdogs," numerous obedience trial champions, and a host of other canine successes. If you want your dog to be happy, confident stimulated, and secure in the obedience ring, Beyond Basic Dog Training is the book of choice.
