This is a very simple little book, but it has some of the most straightforward explanations of how to deal with dogs, especially those that are stressed. Great information on how to approach a dog that may not be comfortable with you and how dogs show their discomfort. I consider it required reading for anyone who doesn't feel comfortable around dogs or anyone who loves dogs. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

"Norwegian dog trainer and behaviorist Turid Rugaas has made it her life work to study canine social interaction. She coined the phrase calming signals to describe the social skills, sometimes referred to as body language, that dogs use to avoid conflict, invite play, and communicate a wide range of information to other dogs. Learn to identify situations that are stressful to your dog so that you can resolve or avoid them. Rehabilitate a dog that has lost her ability to read or give calming signals."--Amazon.com.

There are lots of photos of dogs demonstrating calming signals: turning their heads or bodies away from what’s stressing them out, blinking or yawning, approaching at a curve rather than head-on, slowing down movements (we used to have a dog who would get up and verry slowlly walk out of the room when we were arguing—we always anthropomorphized it as a kind of rebuke, but I’m sure this trainer would say he was trying to calm us down).
Some signals are very easy for humans to do (blinking, yawning, turning away) and some aren’t (tail wagging), but there’s a lot you can do, using their own body language, to help your dog feel more comfortable.
There’s a very strong recurring message of “don’t be a jerk to your dog (she phrases it better)—you may not realize you’re doing it. She wants to steer people away from popular training techniques based on leadership and commands.
“Well-balanced togetherness”—isn’t that a nice phrase?
This book isn’t going to solve all the issues people have with their dogs, but I think it’s provides an important foundation for building trust, which you pretty much need for any training you need to do.
