Synopsis: Ever wish your dog could talk? Well, good news—they already do! But here&’s the catch: they&’re not chatting in English or any other human language. Dogs communicate through a secret code of body language, barks, growls, whines, and all those adorable snuffles. The tricky part? We humans are terrible at cracking the code. We often get it wrong. A growl? We think it&’s a warning, but your pup might just want to play! A slow tail wag? Looks friendly, right? Nope, that could be a signal they&’re feeling uneasy, maybe even on the verge of biting. And the list goes on. We think we understand, but more often than not, we&’re clueless about what our dogs are really trying to say. The truth is, most of us are dying to have the perfect relationship with our dogs, but we just don&’t speak their language. Enter How to Talk to Your Dog. This book is like your very own doggy Rosetta Stone, helping you decode what all those signals really mean. It&’s full of tips on how to understand what your dog is telling you—and how to talk back in a way they&’ll actually get. Because once you learn to speak &“dog,&” you&’ll unlock the secret to an even better bond with your furry best friend!
