Book Review
Culture Clash by Jean Donaldson
Jean Donaldson's book is quite simply the very best dog book I have
ever
read. It is utterly unique, fascinating to the
extreme, and literally overflowing with information that is so new it
virtually redefines the state of the art in dog behavior and training.
Written in Jean's inimitably informal lecture style, the book races
along on
par with a good thriller.
