What experts are saying about The Stress Factor In Dogs:

Kristina Spaulding has done dog lovers and dogs a huge favor by writing

The Stress Factor in Dogs. Chock full of accessible science, it is one of the most important books to come out about dog behavior in a long time. Even if you know a lot about this topic, I guarantee you, you'll learn even more. If you work with dogs or have a dog who doesn't spend his entire life in a Valium-like haze of happiness, get this book. It is a triumph!
