Norwegian dog trainer Turid Rugaas taught the world that humans cannot only learn to read canine body language but use their own body language to communicate with dogs. One of the most influential books on dog behaviour today.

A very helpful resource for dog trainers working with separation anxiety cases or for dog owners who require a more complex approach.
