personality types and why most dogs want to live with benevolent leaders rather than alpha
wanna-bes! Fascinating  insightful  and compelling  The Other End of the Leash is a book that
strives to help you connect with your dog in a completely new way so as to enrich that most
rewarding of relationships.
