GU dog language

Communication is everything - this also applies to the coexistence of humans and dogs. Only those who understand their dog correctly and make themselves understood to them can build up a trusting and cooperative relationship with their four-legged friends and lead them confidently in every situation. The "Dog Language" guide offers comprehensive expert knowledge in a compact and clear form. The first chapter deals with the basics of dog language. Because if you want to understand all the fine nuances of dog expression, you first have to know how the dog perceives its world. Therefore, it is explained here how dogs smell, hear, see and feel, how the dog communicates and what differences there are with regard to the different dog breeds.

The second chapter explains the basics of dog language. It trains our eye for the fine gradations and facets of dog language. What does it look like when the dog is relaxed when he wants to play or impress others? What does the four-legged friend want to say or show us with certain physical or vocal signals - and how do we react to them correctly?

But for successful communication within the human-dog team, it is not only important that the dog owner understands his dog - he should also be able to make himself understood to the four-legged friend. Most misunderstandings between dog and owner are based on the fact that the dog cannot interpret human behavior and does not know at all what his human wants from him. Therefore, the third chapter of the guide deals with communication from human to dog. How do I make it clear to my dog ​​what I want from him? What unconscious messages am I conveying and how do I avoid misunderstandings? All these questions are answered here in a compact and practical way.
