You and your dog's new best friend could well be the kindle. Why? because nothing improves quality of life for dog and dog owner more than better mutual understanding and communication. To achieve that - both dog and dog owner need the knowledge on how to do this. Knowledge, as it has for centuries comes from books. Since dogs can't read books - they'll have to rely on you to take care of that. The Kindle is a new technological advance that changes not only how we read books but makes it fundamentally easier to acquire and store them.

Why Kindle Books?
They're usually cheaper than physical books and there's no shipping costs and there's no actual physical book. That's better for you and better for the planet. All you need is an email and you can recieve a kindle book - and there's no wait time- it's delivered right away. If you have an iphone or android phone, you could always be carrying books with you- ideal for a dog owner at the dog park or while waiting for a certain someone to find the perfect spot, to catch up on some reading.
What books should I get?
Good question. There's a lot of books out there and not all of them are either from credible sources on the subject or current. Take a look at the ones we recommend. We have general books on dog behavior - if you are new to dog ownership. We also recommend targeted behavior books that deal with very specific behavioral issues like reactivity or resource guarding or are specifically for new puppy owners or owners with multiple dogs.
For as low as $9.99 you could have the knowledge tools provided by reputable experts, based on their years of study and experience - like Feisty Fido by Patricia McConnell renowned author, ethologist and behaviorist on the subject of a very common problem - inter dog reactivity- full of humane and effective dog training solutions to a common dog problem. Feisty Fido is also a short read - by tomorrow you could have received and read this book and begun the process of change that would improve you and your reactive dog's life.

Many of the books in our specific behavior section are similar- short reads with clearly explained training methods and techniques to solve problem behaviors which are the exact same ones that professional trainers use to deal with many common problems like prey drive, housebreaking and separation anxiety.
I know someone who could really benefit from those books.
