Avis
Jean Donaldson knows her stuff. She wrote Mine! as a manual for dog consultants, not pet owners. The average pet owner probably won't have the patience, and perhaps not even the background knowledge, to get through this book. It assumes the reader knows their training techniques already but needs a system,perhaps even a check list, for approaching resource guarding from humans. It doesn't address resource guarding from other dogs which is the problem I am facing. It does make me thankful that my guarder somehow knows not to guard from the average adult human.
Rating: 3
Very good book. Steps are very clear an easy to follow.
