Sep 02, Jenna rated it really liked it. This book offers a fantastic training program for reactive dogs. Start at the very lowest level of reaction, create a positive association with whatever it is that creates the anxiety and work from there.
I know first hand that when your dog reacts, it's easy to let yourself also get anxious and excited.
After reading this book, you can stay calm and stay in control of the situation so that you can best help your dog. Sully Pembroke Welsh Corgi was fear aggressive toward dogs and severely shy This book offers a fantastic training program for reactive dogs. Sully Pembroke Welsh Corgi was fear aggressive toward dogs and severely shy toward strangers, children, loud noises and more.
Using methods from this book and a couple of others, he now has several obedience and rally titles and is comfortable being away from home, greeting people and is no longer reactive toward other dogs. This book makes sense! I love the way McConnell writes. She is simply, straightforward, humourous, and absolutely accessible. I picked up an ecopy of this to refresh myself on classical counter conditioning because it's the most simple how to I've ever seen for counter conditioning in fearful dogs and the most accessible.

Very simplistic but very informational and straight forward.
This was a very short read but I think it was just the right length for everything the author wanted to say. No fluff, no crap, just the tools and techniques for training. She gave examples and made sure the advice was open enough for any situation your scared dog is in.

May 15, Janet rated it really liked it. May 01, Florence rated it really liked it. A very useful technique that I used to help a puppy overcome her fear of other dogs.

Derivative and obvious. Jun 07, Rachael rated it it was amazing Shelves: animal-behavior. This is one of Patricia McConnell's "booklets" that focuses in on one issue or another. Through several books as well as working with a professional trainer, we have concluded that Baylie has one of the sweetest personalities who wants very hard to please us, but she is just a fearful little dog. Add that to the "Terrier" in her and now we understand why she is snappy at times.

This short booklet by Patricia McConnell packs a lot of punch and is well worth the brief amount of time it will take you to read.
The Cautious Canine specifically addresses the treatment of behaviors stemming from fear in your dog using a classical counter conditioning technique. The treatment she lays out is, nominally, to work with dogs that are afraid of people but it can easily be adapted to any fear based behavior. McConnell addresses what does and does not work. The emphasis is on consist This short booklet by Patricia McConnell packs a lot of punch and is well worth the brief amount of time it will take you to read.
The emphasis is on consistency and slow progress. You are encouraged to sit down and make lists as to what scares your dog, as specifically as possible, as well as what your dog has a passionate love for, be it tennis balls or hot dog pieces.
