false http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170369267m/50441.jpg 50441 10 <I>How to Be Your Dog's Best Friend</I>, an informal, friendly guide by The Monks of New Skete, is really two books in one: a step-by-step training manual and a philosophical discussion of the spiritual benefits of owning a dog. The Monks, who support their community in upstate New York by breeding and training German shepherds, reveal a profound devotion to all breeds in this detailed guide to every imaginable aspect of dog ownership. They cover it all: naming the puppy, training with eye contact and jingling keys, establishing the best sleeping arrangements, even dealing with pet loneliness. Owners are advised to think of themselves as the dog's alpha figure, to train with praise instead of punishment, and to beware of becoming the dog's maid or doorman. Throughout, the authors reflect on the deep spiritual connection possible between humans and dogs. Generations of dogs have been trained with the bestselling 1978 edition of this book. With this update, the Monks are bound to gain many new fans--happy humans and obedient canines alike. With modesty and generosity, the Monks offer an extensive list of other helpful books about dogs, as well as a useful appendix of American Kennel Club titles and terms. <I>--Judy Fireman</I> 49268 1978 How to Be Your Dog's Best Friend: The Classic Training Manual for Dog Owners (Revised & Updated Edition) total:296|5:85|4:130|3:57|2:13|1:11| 296 1153 419 52 50441 0316610003 9780316610001 255 46 3.90 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170369267m/50441.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/50441.How_to_Be_Your_Dog_s_Best_Friend_The_Classic_Training_Manual_for_Dog_Owners 4 2 false Mon Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Wed Mar 05 07:58:21 -0800 2008 Wed Jun 11 13:48:56 -0700 2008 more...]]> 175102 0316604917 9780316604918 40 6 3.90 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172432429m/175102.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/175102.How_to_Be_Your_Dog_s_Best_Friend_A_Training_Manual_for_Dog_Owners 1 1 false Wed May 13 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed May 13 11:20:27 -0700 2009 Wed May 13 11:36:57 -0700 2009 2 more...]]> 175102 0316604917 9780316604918 40 6 3.90 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172432429m/175102.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/175102.How_to_Be_Your_Dog_s_Best_Friend_A_Training_Manual_for_Dog_Owners 4 1 false Wed Jul 16 15:26:11 -0700 2008 Fri Aug 22 20:30:00 -0700 2008 more...]]> 50441 0316610003 9780316610001 255 46 3.90 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170369267m/50441.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/50441.How_to_Be_Your_Dog_s_Best_Friend_The_Classic_Training_Manual_for_Dog_Owners 4 0 false Mon Sep 07 07:24:32 -0700 2009 Mon Sep 07 07:34:16 -0700 2009 more...]]> 50441 0316610003 9780316610001 255 46 3.90 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170369267m/50441.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/50441.How_to_Be_Your_Dog_s_Best_Friend_The_Classic_Training_Manual_for_Dog_Owners 4 0 false Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2004 Tue Feb 03 09:52:24 -0800 2009 Tue Feb 03 09:53:50 -0800 2009 more...]]> 50441 0316610003 9780316610001 255 46 3.90 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170369267m/50441.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/50441.How_to_Be_Your_Dog_s_Best_Friend_The_Classic_Training_Manual_for_Dog_Owners 4 0 false Sun Mar 01 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Sat Apr 11 14:19:21 -0700 2009 Sat Apr 11 14:27:18 -0700 2009 more...]]> 50441 0316610003 9780316610001 255 46 3.90 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170369267m/50441.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/50441.How_to_Be_Your_Dog_s_Best_Friend_The_Classic_Training_Manual_for_Dog_Owners 5 0 false Sat Aug 09 06:47:47 -0700 2008 Sat Aug 09 06:57:37 -0700 2008 more...]]> 50441 0316610003 9780316610001 255 46 3.90 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170369267m/50441.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/50441.How_to_Be_Your_Dog_s_Best_Friend_The_Classic_Training_Manual_for_Dog_Owners 4 0 false Sun Feb 01 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Mon Feb 16 07:07:10 -0800 2009 Tue Feb 24 11:10:50 -0800 2009 more...]]> 50441 0316610003 9780316610001 255 46 3.90 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170369267m/50441.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/50441.How_to_Be_Your_Dog_s_Best_Friend_The_Classic_Training_Manual_for_Dog_Owners 0 0 false Thu Aug 13 10:14:52 -0700 2009 Thu Aug 13 10:14:52 -0700 2009 50441 0316610003 9780316610001 255 46 3.90 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170369267m/50441.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/50441.How_to_Be_Your_Dog_s_Best_Friend_The_Classic_Training_Manual_for_Dog_Owners 4 0 false Wed Sep 02 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat Aug 15 16:52:42 -0700 2009 Wed Sep 02 08:20:14 -0700 2009 My own experience has been using this with a 3-year-old Siberian husky who came to me somewh...more...]]> 50441 0316610003 9780316610001 255 46 3.90 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170369267m/50441.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/50441.How_to_Be_Your_Dog_s_Best_Friend_The_Classic_Training_Manual_for_Dog_Owners 1 0 false Mon May 18 14:00:05 -0700 2009 Mon May 18 14:01:45 -0700 2009 50441 0316610003 9780316610001 255 46 3.90 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170369267m/50441.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/50441.How_to_Be_Your_Dog_s_Best_Friend_The_Classic_Training_Manual_for_Dog_Owners 3 0 false Mon Jul 27 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue Jul 21 11:24:29 -0700 2009 Mon Jul 27 12:57:06 -0700 2009 50441 0316610003 9780316610001 255 46 3.90 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170369267m/50441.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/50441.How_to_Be_Your_Dog_s_Best_Friend_The_Classic_Training_Manual_for_Dog_Owners 3 0 false Tue Aug 25 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue Aug 25 20:58:34 -0700 2009 Tue Aug 25 20:59:47 -0700 2009 50441 0316610003 9780316610001 255 46 3.90 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170369267m/50441.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/50441.How_to_Be_Your_Dog_s_Best_Friend_The_Classic_Training_Manual_for_Dog_Owners 0 0 false Sat Apr 18 21:20:32 -0700 2009 Sat Apr 18 21:21:38 -0700 2009
