Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. If youve ever said, I love dogs, but I hate people, this book is for you. Following the lead of Dr. Nick Trout and Dr. Phillip Schott, who brought readers behind the scenes in busy animal hospitals, Misadventures follows quirky and (eventually) confident McCue-McGrath into peoples most intimate spaces, their homes, through a decades long career in dog training and behavior. This part-memoir, part-career guide is the first of its kind to put readers in a behaviorists seat, feeling the flush of embarrassment when explaining humping to second graders, the shock of finding adult toys on clients countertops, and the stab of anxiety when aggression cases go sideways. This book is more than a day in the life of a dog trainer, but a look at the rapid evolution of understanding canine behavior over the last twenty years. The interplay between the authors often comical, and sometimes heartbreaking, personal journey into a still unregulated industry perfectly mirrors the global shift from outdated, dominance-based training to modern behavioral sciences. The payoff is a hopeful look at what we can do for animals, what these pets already do for humans, and what we humans can do for each other. Melissas personal journey through the world of dog training offers great insight to those curious about picking up a leash and entering the industry. Alongside her experiences are practical and technical advice for the behavioral professional including signposted resources and coverage of relevant industry bodies. Through the 147 dogs (and one cat) Melissa demystifies this rewarding profession. But most importantly, these beloved pets teach us what saved means, what love means, what hubris is, and remind us all that animals truly make us more human. The story of how the author became a dog behaviourist, describing what the job entails and how she has grown in the job and what she has learned along the way Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
