Whilst her Tellington TTouch Method offers a positive, no-force approach to training, it is much more than just a training method: using a combination of TTouches, Leading Exercises, and the Confidence Course (exercises over obstacles), a dog's performance and health are improved, common behaviour issues are solved, and physical problems are positively influenced.

Linda clearly explains how dogs can be helped to overcome problems such as: excessive barking and chewing; leash pulling; jumping up; dog-aggressive behaviour; fear-biting; timidity and shyness; resistance to grooming; hyper-activity; nervousness; car sickness; hip dysplasia; fear of thunder and other loud noises; and more.

A list of common behavioural and physical ailments with the recommended corresponding TTouch solutions is included.

Case studies involving different breeds of dogs demonstrate how many owners, some at their wits end, have used the TTouches and the Confidence Course to solve all manner of difficulties, with happy results.

"Having tried a few different techniques to help our timid-but-dominant collie x I was beginning to despair of finding a method where I could interact with the dog whilst improving our relationship. Linda Tellington-Jones provides such a method. It is a well written & illustrated book & I have seen results almost instantly - Meg & I have a much closer & more trusting relationship after only a few days. I cannot recommend the book enough. Buy it."

"A while ago I had already read about the t-touch method. I was delighted when the book came out. Have tried the method on our rather nervous dog Scooby and it works wonders for him. He gets very relaxed and doesn't mind me using the method at all. It also helps for his arthritic front paw. The book is very easy to use with pictures for all the touches and solutions if your dog doesn't like the touches.Great book and a must for all dog owners, who want to get more in touch with their dog and relaxe him. Scooby's happy owner"
