Mommy's New Favorite Book...

"The Loved Dog"
- Tamar Geller
|
The Tico Review: "This book is not a hard-core, in depth training manual, but very inspirational with wonderful dog philosophy. Learn to be more like a dog, instead of aggressively forcing your dog to become a human. It's a great way to get started on learning how to communicate with your dog and develop lasting mutual respect."

Book Description
Every dog owner must make a choice: Do you want a fearful and submissive pet, or do you want a happy, joyful, and well-mannered member of the family?
Tamar Geller's mission in life is to teach her cruelty-free method of "life coaching" for dogs and their people. Her revolutionary play-training uses mutual understanding and respect -- and puts an end to outdated methods that rely on physical exhaustion, choke chains, prong collars, dominance rollovers, or stressful aggression of any kind.
A former Israeli intelligence officer who witnessed the horrors of military dog training methods, Tamar went on to observe wolves in the wild. She discovered that wolves educate and socialize their cubs with games, bonding, and body language, not dominance or punishment. As a result, she developed teaching systems that address a dog's authentic nature, part wolflike and part toddlerlike. Learning can be a positive experience that dogs enjoy and look forward to, and we can actually make it fun for our dogs to listen to us and behave as we want them to.
Tamar's insights have brought dog training into the twenty-first century, and her groundbreaking techniques have won the approval of the Humane Society of the United States, for which she is a longtime advisor. Her celebrity clients include Oprah Winfrey, Ben Affleck, Courteney Cox-Arquette, Owen Wilson, and the Osbournes, and she has appeared as an expert on the Today show, The Oprah Winfrey Show, Animal Planet, and more.
In The Loved Dog, Tamar gives you all the instruction, insights, and tips you need to teach your dog good manners, as well as to troubleshoot specific problems and unwanted behaviors. She helps you and your dog learn a common language, resulting in a loving, respectful relationship that will bring you years of joy and companionship. Tamar's play-training approach is so gentle, even children can get involved.

Important Note - New Food!!!
With all the scary warnings about dog foods, and Tico's allergies, we decided to switch to a healthier diet. I'm extremely cautious about what I eat, so why shouldn't Tico be getting the best too. He is a Chihuahua, and an extremely picky eater, but our spoiled little baby has adjusted, and the changes are amazing. Definitely worth it!
Currently, Tico is eating Nature's Logic dry food, free fed throughout the day. Plus, one big meal of Bravo Beef raw meat dog food, and all natural treats.
Since the new diet the changes in his health are quite visible, especially his skin and coat. I used to HAVE to comb him and apply a moisturizing spray every day, but now his coat is always naturally shinny, he isn't itchy anymore, and his dry skin patches have all cleared up. Even his eyes look brighter! If you love your baby, the extra time and money is truly worth it to get them on a higher quality diet.
