What the Hell Is Wrong with My Dog?: You Are What's Wrong! (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781970435542)

Is your dog out of control, or are you just speaking the wrong language? After 35 years and thousands of dogs, professional trainer Alisa Peterson-White has a message that might be hard to hear: you are likely the root of your dog's behavioral problems. This book isn't here to coddle you or blame "bad luck"; it's here to show you how treating your dog like a "furry human child" creates the very chaos you're trying to fix.

Through a series of real-life "Encounters", from a Goldendoodle "model" to a German Shepherd hostage situation, Alisa shares heartbreaking, hilarious, and hopeful stories of transformation. You'll learn why your dog needs a "pack leader" instead of an emotional peer and how to provide the structure, discipline, and alpha energy they are actually begging for.

In this book, you are gonna discover: The "Alpha" Secret: Why your dog needs you to step up as a leader to feel secure.

Real Stories, Real Fixes: True accounts of desperate owners and the simple shifts that saved their homes.

The "Mirror" Effect: How your own habits and energy are directly reflected in your dog's anxiety or aggression.

A New Language: How to stop projecting human emotions and start communicating in a way your dog finally understands.

If you're brave enough to look honestly at your own habits, you can become the solution your dog has been waiting for. Stop the screaming, the chewed-up furniture, and the stressful walks; it's time to start leading.
