About the Book

Wisdom involves realizing what is of value to oneself and others and a genuine desire to share the knowledge in the pursuit of happiness and well-being. Wisdom may be gleaned from many sources including observing the behaviour of dogs (Canis lupus familiaris also known as Canis domesticus). Well cared for, trained and socialized dogs tend to display a positive disposition towards humans, other dogs and animals. During these encounters we can learn many valuable lessons from them as they can from us. A selection of over one hundred and fifty photographic images capturing the essence of day-to-day interactions between humans, dogs and other animals provide the basis for inspirational, motivational, comic, strategic and poignant quotes that have the potential to challenge and motivate us including at times providing the impetus to pursue our aspirations..."One of the most enriching life experiences includes the bond that develops between a human and a dog."-Pia Dowling
About the Author: Pia Dowling (MBA) has gained some valuable insights from observing the behaviour of dogs. Over the past twenty years, Pia and her companion friends have participated in a variety of professional dog training sessions including obedience, luring and agility, pedigree shows and pet events. Pia's dogs have won a variety of prizes, trophies and certificates competing in charitable and fundraising events including 'Iron Dog Competition' (a timed open agility course), 'Fastest Ball Chase', 'Musical Hounds' (i.e. commands to music), 'Dog with Biggest Smile', 'Obstacle Race', 'Best Trick', 'Talent Competition', 'Dog with the Waggiest Tail' and 'Hollywood Dog'. Pia has also trained dogs as the Principal/Trainer of Professional Dog Training Service(c) specializing in behaviour modification, socialization and walk training. Testimonials from clients have been included as follows. (B) has become such a lovely dog, thanks to your input. You have taught us (and her) so much, and with a consistent approach and the passage of time, she is a really lovely dog and we all love her very much. (B) has been a huge comfort and has become a much cherished member of our family. Thanks again for all your help with developing (B) into the lovely dog she is today [Kate]. I really appreciate the great support, patience and guidance that you have provided while working with my dogs and of course myself. I have tried for six months to get (K) to climb up the back steps without success and within 10 minutes of discussing the problem and your guidance, (K) was happily running up the steps...I was so proud of her [Susie]. Pia has assisted our daughters to understand dog psychology, behaviour, learning and communication, grooming, healthcare including diet, exercise and socialization. Pia has achieved this by encouraging (our daughters) to observe the training of her dogs. During the past six months, Pia has assisted (our daughters) to train their puppies in basic obedience (on and off-lead) including identifying and correcting behaviour problems as they have arisen, such as walking effectively on lead and coming when called etc. Ongoing socialization and exercise sessions with Pia's dogs (including off-leash dog parks), coupled with her effective training techniques, have benefited (our dog's) physical and cognitive development immensely. They are friendly and confident dogs that (our daughters) are proud to own [Fiona].
