Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Husky Training - Dog Training for your Husky puppy The training of dogs is often... ... confused with classical dog training drills ... only considered necessary for demanding dogs ... mocked by other dog owners ... replaced by anti-authoritarian methods ... considered too difficult to achieve without experience. What constitutes dog training and what is it good for? And how can you and your Husky profit from it without having any experience? The most important thing is to understand how a dog sees his world, what is “normal” for him and how you can use this to your advantage. In addition, the characteristics of each breed are significant when you get beyond the basic training phase. Your Husky will show characteristics which are different to those of a Pug, for example, and this is predominantly what you need to consider during training. This book is vol. 1 of the Husky training books. Vol. 2 for your grown up Husky is also available with the title "Husky Training Vol. 2: Dog Training for your grown-up Husky" Author Claudia Kaiser says about her book: “It was my desire to let other dog owners profit from the knowledge I have gained over many years, and after making many mistakes.

My aim is to help every beginner, not only to understand his dog better, but also to know exactly how to get the best results, step-by-step, so that you can achieve a close, positive and trusting human-dog relationship.” Quench your curiosity to know about background information, read reports on other experiences and obtain step-by-step instructions and secret tips which are tailor-made for your Husky.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hauntingly beautiful photographs of dogs in cars As a child, photographer Martin Usborne was once left in a car. This was not for long, but he wondered if anyone would come back. Around the same age he fell in love with dogs - they could not speak, just as he felt he was silent in that car. Thirty years later the two experiences came together in this cinematic and darkly humorous project that looks at the way humans are able to silence the animals they love best. No dogs were harmed in the making of this project.
