First Sentence
An academic definition of aggression would be: With consideration for context and normal species patterns, aggression is behaviour or behaviour patterns that are used to resolve conflicts, due to threat or challenge, that are ultimately solved by either contest or deference.

I can not recommend this book enough!! what a revelation!!
for both the enthusiastic dog owner, looking to find the REAL answers to aggression, to the trainer/behaviourist looking for more in depth behaviour protocols.
a great background in the first half of the book covering how dogs learn, using modern prinicpals.
this book explains it in depth but is so well written, that with a bit of application, it is accessible to most.
Great diagrams, photos and down-to-earth explainations alongside the more scientific explanations.
So great to see a book that doesn't come up with a quick fix. It's morally correct and safety when working with aggresion issues is of prime concern. It doesn't delude the owner into thinking everything can be magically fixed in a couple of weeks, but puts down practial beavioural modifications in small steps with lots of advice along the way.
If your looking to know WHY?, its great
If your looking to know HOW? to change aggression, it's great
If your looking to know how to PREVENT aggresion ever occuring, its great
and if you would just like to learn alot more about how dogs learn and about canine behaviour in general - this book is still great!
(I think your probably getting the general idea.....I loved it!)
this book is used again and again, as a dog trainer, it keeps me on the right path and when other literature doesn't have the answer, this one does!
this lady knows her stuff and it is obvious everything she has advises she has used both on her own dogs but also on her clients dogs. Its practical!!

I have a collie who is reactive to other dogs on walks and so I have bought many books on dog aggression over the years. This one is brilliant, it gives you an indepth insight into how your dog is feeling and why he is behaving in a certain way, covers body language in lots of detail, and has good sound advice on how to manage and rehabiliate your dog's aggression. I would definitely recommend it for anyone whose dog is displaying aggression, whether to people, other dogs or other animals.

This book is a practical guide for people who own dogs with a problem of aggression but its usefulness is not limited to this group. Dog owners in general will find something useful in the book which may help them resolve some behaviour that they would like to change. A good combination with Brenda Aloff's photographic guide to canine language.
