Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Think Defensive, Not AggressiveFor decades, the word 'aggressive' has been used to describe dogs who growl, snarl, snap, or bite. But that label carries heavy baggage: moral judgment, assumptions of malice, and a belief that confrontation is the only answer.In Look Closer, science writer Janis Bradley invites readers to reconsider what dogs are actually communicating in these moments. Drawing on behavioral science, canine genetics, shelter research, and decades of real-world observation, she shows that most warning and biting behaviors are best understood not as attempts to do harm, but as defensive responses to perceived threats.Changing that single word changes everything.When we replace judgment with understanding, we make better decisions-about safety, about intervention, and about the dogs we share our lives with. From family homes to shelters to public policy, this shift in perspective opens the door to more effective responses, greater empathy, and stronger human-canine bonds.Written for both dog professionals and dog guardians, Look Closer is not a training manual, but a guide to seeing dogs more clearly-and responding in ways that help everyone feel safer.Praise for Look CloserEver wonder what your dog is really saying when she barks, growls, or gives you that hard stare Look Closer by Janis Bradley flips the script on canine aggression, revealing how a simple shift in language-from 'aggressive' to 'defensive'-can unlock empathy, dissolve stereotypes, and help us build safer, happier bonds with our four-legged friends. Packed with science, stories, and a dash of wit, this book is your invitation to see dogs and what they are communicating to us in a whole new light.
