In Your Dog Is Your Mirror, dog trainer Kevin Behan proposes a radical new model for understanding canine behavior: a dog’s behavior and emotion, indeed its very cognition, are driven by our emotion. The dog doesn’t respond to what the owner thinks, says, or does; it responds to what the owner feels. And in this way, dogs can actually put people back in touch with their own emotions. Behan demonstrates that dogs and humans are connected more profoundly than has ever been imagined — by heart — and that this approach to dog cognition can help us understand many of dogs’ most inscrutable behaviors. This groundbreaking, provocative book opens the door to a whole new understanding between species, and perhaps a whole new understanding of ourselves.

A Ray of Hope tells the story of Ray McSoley, a pioneer of 50 years working in the field of dog behavior therapy. This book opens your mind and heart to what Ray simply calls Quiet Firmness, the secret to his seemingly mystical success helping dogs with people problems.

Written with empathy, wisdom, understanding and sprinkled with laugh-out-loud humor, the book reads like Ray is sitting with you at your kitchen table talking dogs.

Join this highly gifted dog man as he travels the U.S. Canada, England and India, helping some of his more than 24,000 clients solve their troubled dogs‘ issues by a process of gaining and giving mutual trust and respect, along with a clear leader presence.

Called the last resort by many dog owners, the man truly is a ray of hope.
