 Understanding stress in dogs May 12, 2007
Mrs. Helen W. Atkinson
7 out of 8 found this review helpful
This is an excellent book for the novice owner and any person handling dogs who finds some behaviours very puzzling and difficult to manage. it gives a insight into the physiological changes that stress triggers, the behavioural outcomes of these changes and also indicates clearly the various factors that cause stress in dogs. Some case histories are available at the end of the book that illustrate how recognition of stress can point the way to methods of alleviating it and improving the behaviour of the dog. An excellent study of the subject and well worth reading.
Is Your Dog Stressed? Find out in this book! February 12, 2007

Wow! Turid Rugaas has been talking about stress in dogs for the last couple of years during her visits with us at CSDogBookReview. Not surprising she is mentioned in this book.
Each person, as well as, each dog handles stress differently. Learn to recognize the difference between the 'good' stress - eustress and the 'bad' stress - distress.
Does your dog have lots of medical conditions - like allergies, diarrhea, and many others? Then your dog might be showing signs of stress.
Have you ever taken your dog to a dog event or the vet and made sure they eliminated before you went inside? Then shortly after entering your dog defecates? That's stress!
This is a must have book for all dog owners who compete in sports with their dogs. Figure out if you're stressing your dog. Then decide how to handle it from there.
If your dog has developed some medical issues and you can figure out why, find out if they might also be stress related.
I have a house guarder that likes to bark at things out the window. He also has chronic ear infections and skin allergies. I'm thinking that stress and constant release of cortisol is playing into these issues and will be discussing it with his vet.
