Product Description
From teaching basic training to eliminating destructive habits, Bash Dibra has turned dogs of all breeds and dispositions into well-mannered, obedient companions. Bash has worked with the four-legged friends of Matthew Broderick, Sarah Jessica Parker, Jennifer Lopez, Mariah Carey, and a host of other celebrities. With DogSpeak, his $300-an-hour lessons are now available to you. The secret of Bash's success is his uncanny ability to speak to dogs in their own language. With clear and simple guidance, Bash shows you how to interpret their unmistakable vocabulary, including: - Facial expression: reading a dog's emotions, state of health, and intentions by watching for signs like narrowing of the eyes or wrinkling of the muzzle
- Body language: learning the meaning of body stances and tail positions, including the "I'm top dog around here, don't mess with me" and "I'm feeling low" poses
- Vocalization: understanding why dogs bark, how to satisfy their needs, and how to prevent problem barking
Filled with Bash's inimitable warmth and humor, as well as fascinating facts about man's best friend, DogSpeak turns dog training into a game that both you and your dog will enjoy.

Dog Speak is a must read for anyone who has a dog or loves dogs. This book is animated with the words that lead to solutions for every behavior problem imaginable. It is easy to read that will turn you into the "adoring master" your pet yearns for. Why? Because it teaches you how to interpret your dog's feelings, by understanding his or her verbal and non-verbal cues. Once you understand the pattern you can establish the rules of behaviors that are acceptable and those which are not. I would classify this book as the "bible of behavior" when it comes to communicating with "our four legged best friend". It certainly holds a prominent place on my book shelf

When all else failed this book helped my family embrace our wonderful puppy and grow together as a pack. We now understand our dog better and can communicate more clearly with him. Bash's techniques are easy to implement, require no physical discipline and are the optimal solution for making your dog a better citizen both in your home and in public. Understanding the way dogs think, implementing these simple training techniques, and plenty of love is all a person needs to raise a wonderful dog. I highly recommend this book to dog owners new and old, especially those families with young children. Thanks Bash!

As always, Bash doesnt disappoint;like his other books this one is well thought out,informative and easy to read! Bash makes it easy to understand his philosophy and have fun reading at the same time.
This book should be on every dog owner's shelf! Bash has a deep understanding of all species of dogs,having trained first hand so many different kinds,not to mention his experiences with training wolves.
Its time for more books like this from Bash,he is the walking 'encyclopedia' and expert on training pets in this country,all other dog trainers should study first hand with him!
