Learn to communicate with your dog--using their language

"Good reading for dog lovers and an immensely useful manual for dog owners."--The Washington Post

An Applied Animal Behaviorist and dog trainer with more than twenty years' experience, Dr. Patricia McConnell reveals a revolutionary new perspective on our relationship with dogs--sharing insights on how "man's best friend" might interpret our behavior, as well as essential advice on how to interact with our four-legged friends in ways that bring out the best in them.

After all, humans and dogs are two entirely different species, each shaped by its individual evolutionary heritage. Quite simply, humans are primates and dogs are canids (as are wolves, coyotes, and foxes). Since we each speak a different native tongue, a lot gets lost in the translation. This marvelous guide demonstrates how even the slightest changes in our voices and in the ways we stand can help dogs understand what we want. Inside you will discover:

- How you can get your dog to come when called by acting less like a primate and more like a dog
- Why the advice to "get dominance" over your dog can cause problems
- Why "rough and tumble primate play" can lead to trouble--and how to play with your dog in ways that are fun and keep him out of mischief
- How dogs and humans share personality types--and why most dogs want to live with benevolent leaders rather than "alpha wanna-bes "

Fascinating, insightful, and compelling, The Other End of the Leash is a book that strives to help you connect with your dog in a completely new way--so as to enrich that most rewarding of relationships.

Prom Must Have
Size: Large, Color: Black, Size: Large, Color: Black
1) Totally affordable compared to ANY rental 2) Prom or Homecoming, maybe a (non high fashion) charitable event type quality jacket. True to size. 3) Pants are likely a 36” length. But otherwise true to size. The quality is great. 4) I ordered according to another review. My son is 5’10” plus a smidge. He’s 180#. Athlete. I ordered a Large. It’s perfect other than the length. He has a twin brother who is the same height but about 20# lighter and would need a medium. Also an athlete. 6) Make sure you order in time for pants length alrerations. 5) Do it. Order it for your event. Save a few hundred dollars and a ton of time returning rentals, those pants can be used again for sure.

Great suit!
My man looked soooo handsome in his suit. We ordered this suit at the last minute. It fit perfect. He is 6'3 wears a 38 jean and xl shirt. We were worried about the length of the pants but they perfect and long and the jacket fit perfect! The quality was great and he said he loved the fit and it was spacious. We went to a ball and we leaned and rocked all night and he didnt have to come out of his jacket to do so.

The blue really pops
Fit fine, looks great, just wish it came with a tie. It does not come with a vest or shirt either but I didn’t really care about that. Pants were a little long but once my son put his shoes on he was able to manage length.

tuxedo
I bought this for my son for my sister's wedding. The pants were way too big but we knew that when we ordered it. We bought the correct sized bottoms and he rocked it.
