    This is an amazing book, it is really good. I am about half way through it now, it is a hard read but there is so much to learn it is difficult to take it all in. I am learning so much, it is really helpful. There is 329 pages of reading then at the back of the book there is a quiz to test your dog body language reading skills that you have learnt reading the book. It is by brenda aloff, there are 7 sections in total including: expressions of emotions, calming & negotiating signals, Neutral & friendly, Space invaders, Predation, Play and a quiz section at the end. In each section it breaks down the behaviors and explains all about them in great detail

    This book really focus's on the subtle signs of body language, some cane be very subtle indeed, like ridges above the eyes or mouth can be signs of stress, just very small things can make a big difference
