Based on seven years of working with companion animals and people, this handbook provides tools and techniques for creating an environment in which pets and their owners can happily coexist and thrive. Focusing primarily on dogs, cats, and horses (but relevant to virtually all animals), the book posits a dual premise: healthy companion animals are better equipped to help the humans they love, just as educated humans are better able to comprehend what their animals are about. The goal is to provide pet owners with a starting point from which they can foster and practice deeper interspecies communication.
