Even after 14 years in animal control, I still am sometimes surprised at how well people can rationalize their irresponsible behavior where pets are concerned. And this lady made money off of it! A woman who has no regard for either the dogs nor her neighbors, I also find it hard to believe that her behavioral insights can be respected when even her own dogs ignore her "leadership" by the end of the book. A very regrettable book that glorifies dangerous, unthoughtful and uncaring treatment of dogs.
