Kids & Dogs

Authors: Ruth Weston & Dr Catriona Ross

Ruth Weston this time joined by her daughter, Dr Catriona Ross who has a PhD in psychology. Ruth and Catriona have combined their expertise in human and dog behaviour to produce a book which will be of great assistance to any family who wants to get the most fun and pleasure out of the relationship between their child and dog.

The book covers such topics as:

  • what types of dogs are suited to children,

  • how to introduce a new dog or baby into the household,

  • how you can teach and motivate both children and dogs to learn effectively

  • what responsibility children can take towards caring for their dog at various ages

  • how to cope with the loss of a pet

  • how to avoid dog bite

There are 13 lessons that parents and children can teach their pet including some critical exercises such as coming when called, staying quietly and walking nicely on the lead as well as fun activities such as jumping, fetching, shaking hands and rolling over.

Over 100 photographs support the text and make it appealing to all family members.
