The Culture Clash
(2nd Edition)
by Jean Donaldson
$17.95 (206 pages)
The Culture Clash is the current runaway best-selling book in
the dog fancy. Voted #1 BEST BOOK by the Association of Pet Dog
Trainers and winner of the Maxwell Award (Dog Writers Association
of America) for best dog training book. The second edition is
substantially revised and expanded (with an extra eleven thousand
words). And, the second edition is even better and much more
thought-provoking than the first.
The Culture Clash is special. Jean Donaldson’s first book
is quite simply the very best dog book I have ever read. It is
utterly unique, fascinating to the extreme, and literally overflowing
with oodles of information that is so new it virtually redefines
the state of the art in dog behavior and training. Written in
Jean’s informal yet precise lecture style, the book races
along on par with a good thriller.
The Culture Clash depicts dogs as they really are—stripped
of their Hollywood fluff, with their inimitably existentialist “right-now,
can I eat it, chew it, urinate on it, what’s in it for
me?” philosophy. Jean’s tremendous affection for
dogs shines through at all times, as does her keen insight into
the dog’s mind. Relentlessly she champions the dog’s
point of view, always showing concern for their education and
well being.
The Culture Clash joins a very distinctive group of dog training
classics and it runs at the head of the pack. The Culture
Clash has a refreshingly original perspective and always cuts to the
chase—no if’s and no but’s—here’s
the story—educate your dog! Without a doubt, Jean’s
book is the hottest doggy item on the market—the quintessential
book for dog owners and dog trainers alike—a very definite
two paws up! Do yourself and your dogs a big favor: give it a
read.
