Shadow was a handsome, fearful, aggressive, one-year-old, second-hand Border Collie. He lashed out at people without warning and avoided human touch. Pam Dennison was a professional dog trainer with 12 years experience and a half dozen successful dog adoptions behind her when she met Shadow.\n\nWhen Pam found Shadow at a Border Collie rescue site on the Internet she was just looking to round out her canine family. Like a match.com date she decided to meet Shadow “just to see” and, because she couldn't think of any reason not to take him home, he became hers. He also became her problem!Follow their 18-month journey from the early, dark days of fear and frustration to the daylight of confidence and trust. Learn how difficult it is, even for a professional dog trainer, to handle a dog with a past—and a temper too.\n\nDid she regret her decision to adopt Shadow? Yes. Sometimes.\nDid she make mistakes along the way? Of course.\nDid she resort to punishment? Never once.\n\nReviews from other canine professionals\nOutstanding stuff! Very impressive! I have yet to run into someone with your determination and commitment. It's great to see an animal this far in the hole is now climbing Everest.\nTed Turner, Animal Behaviorist, former director of training at Sea World\n\nPam reveals what to do and (occasionally) what not to do when working with an aggressive dog.\nAli Brown, Author of Scaredy Dog\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1929242174\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: RDV.1929242174.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Dennison, Pamela\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This book is in good condition with very minimal damage.
