Book review
Many good things come in small packages* and this includes Doggie Language by Lili Chin.
This cute little hardback volume will look smart on any shelf or coffee table and makes for irresistible reading too.
Described on the cover as ‘a dog lover’s guide to understanding your best friend’ it is filled with superb illustrations, showing clearly how your dog may express him or herself and what the visual signs may mean within a given context.
Think of it as an essential cross-species language translator; section by section you can check what your dog’s eyes, ears, mouth, tail and posture are signalling and learn how to tell the difference between a happy and relaxed or stressed and anxious dog.
It’s a book for all ages and you will never tire of looking at Lili Chin’s wonderful artwork. The ultimate benefit is that by understanding your dog’s language the better you will be able to provide them with an even more relaxed and comfortable living environment.
*With the exception of my Juniper who at 30kg and growing, is very much of the good thing in a large package variety!
