Summary

As voted on by our patrons, we read and discussed Dr. Patricia McConnell's "The Other End of the Leash".  Jackie was thrilled to suggest that our summer book club choice feature one of her favorite writers/speakers about dog behavior.  But, this book wasn't just another training manual: It delved a lot deeper into both dog and human patterns of behavior.  We learned that humans love to talk, dogs don't love being patted on the head, and just why these two Peter Pan species get along so darn well.
 
Even though you may not currently be one of our premium $10 patrons, enjoy this preview of our full length discussion, including our thoughts on dogs, general chat about the book, and a detailed breakdown of the first chapters.  
Want to hear the rest of the episode and earn 2 CEs.? We invite you to join us on Patreon to hear the rest of this and our other full-length book clubs (plus early access to shows and some other goodies).
 
And, if you enjoy the discussion (or just enjoy dogs), tune back in in August for our interview with Dr. Patricia McConnell!

So, again, related to our field, but we thought, you know, for summertime, this would be a good choice
