"Pam Whyte, a world renowned authority on dog behaviour and psychology has unlocked the door to achieving a more co-operative and manageable dog. She

Dog behaviourists in the UK are also knocking at Pam Whyte's door for expert advice." Southern Courier, Gauteng.
"The book has its hilarious moments. The contents are amazing. Pam Whyte has some excellent and very serious thoughts about living with dogs - sort of
"duty without cruelty". It's a super book for anyone with a dog, for, no matter how you think you get along with Fido, there's plenty more to
learn to make your life (and your dog's) even better." Natal Mercury.
"Covering a variety of aspects, including commands, food, separation anxiety and others (there is even a chapter for those who don't like dogs),
Pam Whyte's formidable knowledge of her subject is evident." The Citizen.

questions dog owners ask about dog behaviour. And it's delightfully illustrated by cartoonist Walter Pichler. Sunday Times.

acquiring a dog. Pam Whyte has also produced several videos on dog behaviour, one of which is used by guide-dog trainers in France ." Cape Times.
"Pam Whyte has spent 3 decades working with dogs, and encapsulated much of her wisdom in the 340-page volume. . In fact this book is the best excuse
I've ever had for not getting up early on a Sunday morning and standing in a field with other dog owners..you will be entertained by her
wealth of anecdotes and case histories." John Scott, Cape Times."
"Pam Whyte's latest work will leave you with a distinct feeling that the mutt lying at your feet, on the sofa, or bed, knows more than you could
ever imagine." District Mail.
"Pam Whyte's 's book Living with an Alien is an amusing but perceptive book on animal perception and dog language." Farmers Weekly.
"Pam Whyte sets out to help humans tap into and develop the instincts that a dog brings when it comes to live in our society, instead of trying to force
them into un-doglike behaviour by imposing our will onto them, which usually confuses or even breaks a dog." Cape Times.
"Pam Whyte shows dog owners how to overcome behaviour problems by outlining practical guidelines to overcome them. She does this chiefly by showing
the family how to help their dog adapt to his life-style and how to communicate in his own pack-tongue. This may sound deranged to the ignorant
ear, but once explained, sounds a more positive bet than communicating through a host of often-aggressive commands. Pam encourages one to shift
one's perspective and to get a "dog's eye view", advice that will enhance the pleasure of dog owning." The Citizen.
"Ideal Guide has humorous tone. Through more appropriate communication techniques, the confusion, which often prompts naughty behaviour, will
be eradicated. The book is peppered with assertions about doggy behaviour which may not be the solutions you are expecting to find, but take
heart - these culture shocks may produce startling results." The Citizen.
"Too much stress is placed on what dogs look like and making them do as they are told, instead of helping adjust to the culture shock of
domestication." Cape Times.
"Send right signals to mutt from mars .You need top apply the very simple principles of pack communication as laid out in Pam Whyte's book on Dog Language - Living with an Alien, so that what you say to your
dog becomes congruent with what he hears. Once you understand your dog, your enjoyment of him will increase, and your relationship with him
will be enriched." The Star.
"Dog training presupposes that dogs think like humans. Think again! But if you're prepared to let the dog dominate, then you might as well switch on the electric blanket, open the fridge, hand over the can opener and the car keys and move out to the dog kennel." Star
