Expanded Description:
Including an entirely new section on leash-walking multiple dogs, this dog training booklet has received rave reviews from people living with more than one dog. Written with Patricia McConnell and Karen London's extensive knowledge of both theory and practicality, (not to mention their sense of humor), it provides clear and workable ideas to make living with a pack of dogs fun and fulfilling.
This is a great resource if you're looking for some dog training tips to create a little order out of the canine chaos in your home, or wondering how in the world you'll manage the entire pack for a walk around the neighborhood. Perhaps you're concerned that there is tension between two of the dogs in your pack or whether your dog's play might escalate into aggression. This expanded and updated booklet has the answers to those questions and many more. Written to help you maximize the joy of living in a multi-dog household, it emphasizes the use of ethology and positive training methods to teach your dogs to be polite and patient instead of demanding and pushy. Filled with practical ideas about keeping life fun in houses that have two dogs or many more than that, Feeling Outnumbered is a great resource for all multiple dog owners whether novice or professional.

| Excellent!, October 29, 2009 |
| Reviewer: David B |
The authors almost short change themselves with the title...
Sure, the training and ideas do apply to multi-dog households, but much of that same training begins with training that first dog, and then bringing in the rest one at a time on the same thing unlit all are doing it. Is this a bad value for those of us in multi-dog households? Not a all! It is just that those with only one dog can get good ideas and value out of this book too. Add to that, there is enough good stuff that does apply directly to managing multi-dogs to keep those of us quite happy!
Lets look at it this way: I keep my books in pristine condition. The only books I ever mark in are my dog training and behavior ones. 'Feeling Outnumbered' has the most marks-per-page of any of them. A short book at 50 pages, but more wisdom per page than many others. |

Trish has done it again..wonderful booklet for anyone even considering adding to their 'pack'. In her clear and sometimes humorous style, she gives the best possible advice for multidog households. The emphasis is on prevention.
Thumbs (and dewclaws) up! |
