Hip Ideas for Hyper Dogs

Hyper dogs are often overly energetic, wickedly smart, and incredibly stubborn. How do you turn your furry flurry of activity into a sane, mild-mannered companion? This book gives you fun, hip techniques especially for hyper dogs and harried pet parents who want quick results. You'll discover how to:

• Help your dog burn excess energy quickly and safely
• Use communication and training skills to gain control
• Use obedience games, attention builders, and outdoor adventures to train and bond with your dog
• Create the perfect canine chill-out sanctuary
• Handle problems like separation anxiety and special circumstances like vet visits

With a canine personality profile to help you better understand your pet and real-life stories of dogs who may make your rambunctious renegade seem saintly, this book will help you channel your dog's energy and turn her into a cool, calm, and collected companion.
