Through a Dog's Eyes Audiobook

" Overall I enjoyed this book. Sometime it was a bit technical, but overall lots of interesting information about my Sadie... "

" If you have a dog, read this book. If you are thinking of getting a dog, read this book. If you have ever wondered how dogs think, read this book. "

" Fantastic book, every dog owner should read!!! "

" This book was so much fun! It approaches dogs through a psychological point-of-view, explaining dog's behaviors based on their minds. As a dog-lover, I found it absolutely fascinating, and it really made sense out of some of the peculiar things we see dogs do, as individuals and as a species. For those of you who are into the personality-type indicator, the Enneagram, you'll be fascinated to know that a similar personality-type organization exists for dogs. There are anecdotes about dogs that will make you laugh, and cry (especially the last chapter of the book...it troubled me for weeks). A must-read for all dog owners and lovers! "

" Arnold refutes the methods popularized by "experts" such as the dog whisperer. I would have preferred fewer personal anecdotes and more training methods. "

" purchased this book after hearing Jennifer Arnold talking about her work and the book on an NPR program. I am so glad that I did! Every person who has dogs or plans on having a dog needs to read this book. Jennifer Arnold made so many points about dogs that I never would have thought of or learned elsewhere. The back of the book has a lot of great tips on training your pups. It is a keeper on my perma-bookshelf. "

" Good mix of anecdotes and training experience/philosophy. Not too heavy-leaning one way or the other, which was nice. "

" Some interesting tidbits and suggestions about dog training in this book. It's definitely an opinion piece though. I agree with the author, but I would've liked more science-y, research-based information and less "this is what I think." Trying a few suggestions with my two puppies though! :) "

" How can you not love a book where a dog actually flips the re-set button on a child's ventilator when the ventilator cuts off????????????????????????????????And on his own, without even being told or taught to???? "

" The author runs Canine Assistants, and has spent years training and overseeing the training of assistance dogs. Her compassionate way of seeing dogs' personalities and souls is uplifting and fascinating. "

" Fantastic stories about the brilliant minds of dogs trained to be service animals. In comparison, my dog seems a little "special" but I still love him. Even if he can't figure out how to open doors, cook me a dish of scrambled eggs or build an emergency shelter out of dishcloths, I love him anyway. "

" If you are a dog lover, then you need to read this book. Jennifer presents a good case to adjust the way you view your dog and their behavior. I have a lot of respect for what she and her organization do for those who need these canine lifesavers! "

" I enjoyed "seeing through a dog's eyes" - it definately gave me something to think about. Some of her tips were useful, in other areas I wish she had given hard and fast ways to correct behaviors you don't like in your dog. Could have used more useful training tips. But over all I enjoyed the book. "

" animals and people need more 'jennifer arnolds' who use positive discipline and training. an easy fast read. "

" Sweet book by a woman who has trained service dogs for 20 years. At first I was worried it wouldn't give me the goods (i.e., how to train my own new-to-me beagles), but in the end it did. Great insights, touching stories. "

" This woman who founded Canine Assistants loves dogs and it comes through loud and strong in her writing. I enjoyed this book- maybe because I share most of her views. =) "

" This is an amazing book, and anyone who loves dogs (or animals in general) should read it. Great stories, wonderful insights, and a truly workable, loving approach to getting your dog to work with you so you can have a wonderful life together. Can't recommend it highly enough. "

" Very interesting... why dogs do things... how to teach them, and theories of canid/human development. "

" Lovely stories and nice writing, but I felt like I had read it all before, and I had: in a lot of the source material she surveys and summarizes. "

" I thought I might learn something about dog personalities or behaviors but really it's a book about how the author breaks into a business. Good for her, but not what I wanted to read about. "

" This was unexpected and moving to hear of the work of Canine Assistants. I even learned a few things for dealing with my dogs! "

" This book is very informative on how a dog thinks, acts, etc. I learned many things that I wish I knew when Lucky was alive. A wonderful book for all dog owners! "

" Great book for dog people!!!! Very informative. Loved it and will refer back to it again and again. It will stay in my nook for easy reference. "

" I understand and agree with her insights. I did not, however, receive the dog training instruction I was looking for when I started this book. "

" This was such a pleasure to listen to. Amazing stories and wonderful tips for training puppies or adult dogs. "

" Excellent view on dogs and the important part they play in the lives of many. "
