Had to read this for university and is a great starting point for beginners as well has great as a refresher for people with more experience with easy to head and understand terminology, even after uni I still find myself reaching for this book every once and a while as a quick refresher📚😊 definitely recommend if your interested in getting into canine training and behaviour.
