Review: Most helpful book, straight to the point, I see my dogs better! - I have 4 dogs and while I work on training, things are far from perfect more often than not. I am always looking into ways to keep improving and stumbled upon this book by accident (or AI interference lol). I have so much less time in life that to be honest, I scroll straight to the page count of a book before I even consider it. Like a dog, I need to set myself up for success :) This fit the bill, seemed to address an issue I have going on, so I bought the print version over the digital version. Glossy pages (my favorite), enough photos, and short enough I could get through. So I jumped right in. WOW. Simplified. This is perfectly simplified, you aren’t getting lost in deep explanations and then forgetting what the lesson was, and the examples are helpful enough to give you just that: an example. I learned or gained more insight out of this book than I have the mountains of dog books I own, which is not because those books aren’t any good, but information is only helpful if a person has time to read that many pages and absorb it. I have immediately started applying this “to the point” guidance in trying to communicate calmness with my dogs, but more importantly, I have suddenly woke up up to being better at observing them communicating. Mind blown! As soon as I finished this book, I immediately ordered the other 2 by Turid Rugaas that were relevant to me and I am looking forward to diving into her insights! Review: Excellent to help understand dogs - Strongly recommend this book for better understanding of your dogs. Especially helpful if like me, you don’t feel you intuitively understand dogs. I had a severe dog phobia most of my life and this book was one of the keys in overcoming my fear of dogs and helping me bond with the dogs who ultimately joined our family. It is short and fast to read but very insightful. ## Features - training field calm aggressive behavior ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #22,570 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #22 in Dog Training (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 3,311 Reviews | ## Images ![On Talking Terms with Dogs: Calming Signals - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91S9dM3Vp4L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Most helpful book, straight to the point, I see my dogs better! *by S***N on June 11, 2025* I have 4 dogs and while I work on training, things are far from perfect more often than not.

Especially helpful if like me, you don’t feel you intuitively understand dogs. I had a severe dog phobia most of my life and this book was one of the keys in overcoming my fear of dogs and helping me bond with the dogs who ultimately joined our family. It is short and fast to read but very insightful. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ excellent information for dog owners *by C***E on August 17, 2008* This is a brief, very readable book that increased my knowledge of canine body language. To her credit, Ms. Rugaas does not say this is a scientific study. It is a how-to book based on her observations and efforts, an accessible book to begin learning canine body language. I have several large dogs and have read many dog books. This book was light and enjoyable. It was fun to try the head-turns and other signals myself. I was able to more easily recognize stress in my dogs and then reduce it. Any language can be mis-interpreted. No book can guarantee to keep you or your dog out of aggressive situations. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1273926-on-talking-terms-with-dogs-calming-signals](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1273926-on-talking-terms-with-dogs-calming-signals) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-31*
