    I found this book has lots of useful information but unless you feel comfortable implementing the protocols and are a very savvy dog trainer it can leave you in a spot of how to move forward!

    No one has written a better, more practical book on this important topic. Its been around for awhile but stands up to the test of time. Written for those who work with clients but also can be applied by individuals with resource guarding dogs.
